Mozart complete opera, The Magic Flute (audio only) conducted by Herbert von Karajan
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kHqX1HuUpk
It's a little different musically from productions I am more used to.
The musical interpretation is a bit different.
I don't speak or understand much German, but I think the German ennunciation in this production is more distinct.
I do find that sometimes von Karajan can be technically excellent, but a bit soulless in his interpretation.
I liked the Levine, Metropolitan Opera production featuring Kathleen Battle the best.
The sets and costumes of that production were designed by David Hockney.
