Product Description
CD89086 Tippett - King Priam, Coventry 1962 (world premiere)
Hi everyone This world premiere was requested a long time ago back in 2007 and here it is finally. It's not quite complete, missing the very final scene of act 3, but large amounts of commentary are included explaining the plot. The performance was done by the Royal Opera House at the Coventry Theatre, Coventry, during the Coventry Cathedral Festival. The production then appeared in London at Covent Garden.

We sell only opera recordings. The recordings are sent to you in paper sleeves with no tray card or inserts, just the raw discs with printed labels. These recordings are of nonprofessional quality that are in the public domain. The quality of these old opera recordings is not very good and they are meant for collectors and educational purposes only. Most of them are 30 or 40 years old, so they might be blurry, colors faded, and not sound very good, but they might not be available elsewhere. Please note that most of our recordings do not have tracks, they have 1 long track per disc.
