“this Australian Opera production brilliantly overcomes the limitations of a theatre and the electricity and vitality of Sir Charles Mackerras's conducting makes one readily forget any shortcomings...thanks to the excellent singing and conducting, the impact of Wagner's great score catches you as it would in the theatre.”
