Don Carlo is better in translation

Don Carlo not in French, nor in Italian, but in German.

I’m not advocating for the translation per se but I wouldn’t be without this recording of Fassbaender absolutely losing her shit and if its the availability of a translation that made her game, then I’m very glad of it. See also Martha Modl.
