Title: I have to give this one five stars since, unfortunately, it's the best one right now
Review: This video features the lead singer who actually resembles the title character, which is a blessing. The others are less convincing, with the exception of Ortrud: she's fine. The sets are atrocious as usual: minimalist nonsense. Elsa is, well ... never mind. The orchestra is nearly perfect, the tempi pretty good (almost no dragging). All other video recordings of this masterpiece are worse, some of them a lot worse. During certain portions of this production you'll actually get the sense of what Wagner was trying to convey. The English subtitles are so-so. The voices are exceptional.
