Product Description

CD85600 DVORAKOVA-Fans: Götterdämmerung (1970 London)

These unzip to four folders, and the zip file includes a full cast list and details from the original posting.

Next a different set, labelled as 26 September, and with this description:

Gotterdammerung Covent Garden 26 September 1970

Originally from a BBC Third Programme live broadcast, via Good Sound Associates of New York (who were they? where are they now?).

The conclusion of the first Ring Cycle that year. (Edward Downes conducted the second.)

1 Norn-Helen Watts 2 Norn-Maureen Guy 3 Norn-Margaret Kingsley Brunnhilde-Ludmila Dvorakova Siegfried-Karl-Josef Hering Gunther-John Shaw Hagen-Martti Talvela Gutrune-Heather Harper Waltraute-Josephine Veasey Alberich-John Modenos Woglinde-Elizabeth Robson Wellgunde-Anne Howells Flosshilde-Elizabeth Bainbridge

C-Georg Solti

Unfortunately this is in mono, and ends at "send ich die Beide nun Heim". But it is worth listening to. It is Martti Talvela's only complete recorded Hagen (apart from "Zuruck vom Ring!") and contains other notable performances, especially Karl-Josef Hering's wonderful Siegfried - a superb voice and splendid variation of tone to express different emotions ("Wer band dich in Schlummer so bang" is a typical example). Solti's last Ring at Covent Garden, somewhat mellower than when he started out in 1961!

Important Information!!!
USA Telephone (404) 200-4776 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.
