Erich Kleiber's 1955 Vienna Figaro marked the first complete recording of what is arguably Mozart's greatest opera. What a performance! Cesare Siepi and Alfred Poell bring Figaro and the Count, respectively, to life, and play off each other, as do the female principals. Hilde Gueden's sweet and straightforward Susanna stands out, along with Fernando Corena's deliciously idiomatic Bartolo (his is still the best ActÂ I Vengeance aria on disc). Kleiber's well-drilled Viennese musicians are an integral part of the ensemble. The legendary conductor's sense of proportion, transition, and rightness of tempo still rings true after all these years. Though the sound may not match contemporary Figaro traversals on CD, musicmaking on this level will never grow old. In sum, a landmark in the annals of Mozart recordings and interpretation. --Jed Distler
