Though the DVD of the abridged version is certainly a treat, I really hope that a live in HD, even a full DVD recording might be made available of the the whole opera. The abridged version as I said is wonderful - I'd just love to see it all!

There's now a live-in-HD performance of Die Zauberfloete from 2017, same set but unabridged. It is wonderful!
SHE IS PERFECT.
