Comments:- The video recording issued by Premiere appears to be of a performance in April, May, or June 1979. The cast listed above is that given in �La Scala 67-92 - Cronologia - Opere, Balletti, Concerti� p.99. In some performances the role of Malcom was sung by Antonio Savastano and that of the Sicaro by Giorgio Surjan rather than the singers listed above. I do not know which sings in the performance recorded. The year of the performance recorded is given as 1978 in Premiere's online catalogue.

Comments:- The LPs issued on the HRE label are advertized in GRAMOPHONE April 1984 p.1239 and listed in ARS ANTIQUA'S list No.240, August 2001 p.35 (no.2442), while the CDRs issued by House of Opera are included in the list of new releases added to their website in December 2003 �03/12/22�. The recording is presumably of a performance at Covent Garden in May 1974 (HOO gives 17 May) where 7 performances were given with the above cast except that Rodrigo was sung by Adrian De Peyer in only six of them (see OPERA October 1974 p.913). I do not know if he sang in the performance(s) in these recordings. Verdi's Disco gives Leslie Fyson (normally a baritone or bass) as singing this role (http://verdisdisco.de - hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM). As far as I can ascertain none of the performances was broadcast, so the recording would presumably have been made �in house�. The performance on 1 May 1974 is reviewed in OPERA July 1974 pp.639-640
