One of the reasons for this is its prominent cast of singers, first and foremost the legendary tenor Fritz Wunderlich, one of whose star roles was Tamino. Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau embodies the bird-man Papageno with bravura and Franz Crass interprets the two Sarastro arias with a melodious, warm bass voice that is unparalleled even today The recordings are presented on 2 CDs as well as on a high-fidelity Pure Audio Blu-ray disc in audiophile 96kHz / 24-bit format. The mastering is based on the original analogue tape recordings.
