Comments:- Calvin M. Goodwin has kindly provided me with the following information about the CD issued by Gala. When GLH 821 was first issued it contained excerpts from a performance with Martina Arroyo and Misha Raitzin although it was labeled as being a recording with Grace Bumbry and Carlo Bergonzi. When it was reissued it did contain a recording with these singers (this is listed separately). According to the MET Annals the only performance of �La Gioconda� in which Arroyo and Raitzin sang together was that on 10 April 1976 which was broadcast. The cast listed above is that for this performance, but not all the singers listed appear in the excerpts on the Gala CD.

As none of these performances was broadcast the recording must have been made �in-house�.
