Mozart - Die Zauberflöte (Karl Böhm, Wiener Philharmoniker) [2xSACD] (2026) SACD
A legendary cornerstone of operatic recording history, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s masterwork 'Die Zauberflöte' (The Magic Flute), K. 620, is presented here in a pristine Japanese 2-SACD reissue from Decca / Tower Records (PROC-2490/1). Recorded in May 1955 at the historic Redoutensaal in Vienna under the authoritative baton of Karl Böhm leading the Wiener Philharmoniker and Wiener Staatsopernchor, this production remains widely regarded as one of the finest studio interpretations ever committed to tape. Featuring an extraordinary ensemble cast—including Hilde Güden as Pamina, Leopold Simoneau as Tamino, Walter Berry as Papageno, Wilma Lipp as the Queen of the Night, and Kurt Böhme as Sarastro—this historic performance balances Mozartian elegance, vocal purity, and theatrical magic.
Digitized directly in high-resolution DSD64 format from the 2026 Japanese SACD remastering, this 2-disc SACD-R ISO capture preserves the incredible acoustic warmth, three-dimensional stage depth, and dynamic vocal presence of the legendary Decca sessions with flawless fidelity—offering an unmatched reference-quality listening experience for opera aficionados and Mozart connoisseurs.
