Music Web International : Marc Bridle
"..And that is the colossal scale of Kleiber's life and death. There exist some of the greatest recorded performances of symphonies and operas anywhere in the catalogue (are there many people who would deny that his Der Freischütz is the greatest opera recording ever made?) Kleiber does what every great conductor does : he brings to a work something personal and unique. .."
