Some people will no doubt think I'm mad, but I'm looking to trade my Klemperer Fidelio on CD (original full price issue, with complete libretto and notes) for the Karajan with Dernesch and Vickers. Anyone interested?

No need. Bought it and am selling the Klemperer on ebay.

Well, having listened to the Karajan again for the first time in about 10 years, I can only say that I find it a far more satisfying performance. I'm thinking of writing a detailed crit of it for the board. In my opinion it has been unfairly dismissed and/or maligned by many critics.

Please do! I'd be looking forward to it. :)

Sorry. It's simpler. However it hasn't sold. If you'd like to make me an offer (payment by paypal) I'd be pleased to consider it. I'd have to check postage costs though.

Sounds promising, since I recently got it here:
