CD90379 WALKÜRE Dvorakova, Bjoner, Fliether, Kozub - Downes - London
5th attempt to get rid of this information - there's something awfully wrong with the yahoo messages for the past few days ...
Seeing the cast discussion I remembered a book I bought a while ago listing all ROH Ring casts, and that's what this book says about the performance on 3rd of October 1967:
DIE WALKÜRE Oper in drei Aufzügen von Richard Wagner.
Siegmund: Ernst Kozub Wotan: Herbert Fliether (replacing the indisposed Hans Hotter) Hunding: Kurt Böhme Sieglinde: Ingrid Bjoner Fricka: Josephine Veasey Brünnhilde: Ludmila Dvorakova Gerhilde: Ava June Ortlinde: Margaret Kingsley Waltraute: Yvonne Minton Schwertleite: Monica Sinclair Helmwige: Vivian Townley Siegrune: Noreen Berry Grimgerde: Patricia Purcell Roßweiße: Elizabeth Bainbridge
Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden Edward Downes
Hotter sang indeed the Rheingold performance the day before, but had to cancel Siegfried too, where also Fliether sang the Wanderer instead of him. Due to the unavailability of both Hotter and Fliether for the 5th of October, when Siegfried was originally scheduled, Götterdämmerung and Siegfried were switched, on 5th of October there was Götterdämmerung, on 7th of October Siegfried.

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.
