Solti said his favourite Wagner opera was Meistersinger because there was no drugs in the story, yet Solti was a speed freak. He was on pep pills during the early 60s while recording most of Der Ring des Nibelungen. I don't judge; many people did that and still do, but I'm just sayin' I love what Solti did though, perhaps we can thank drugs for Solti.Thanks for posting: I'm adding this to my playlist!
