Comments:- This video recording appears to be of performance in the Teatro Campoanor, Oviedo. The DVD issued by House of Opera (DVD 499) was listed in their online catalogue of �New DVDs 22 January 2005�. The recording is attributed here to �Caracas 1980�, but according to �Opera on Screen� by Ken Wlaschin p.327 the cast given by HOO corresponds to a performance in Oviedo (as given above). There is a video recording from Caracas but according to Wlaschin the cast was quite different.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Comments:- According to �More EJS� pp.303-304 the recording issued on the UORC label is an �in-house� recording of an abridged performance given by the San Francisco Opera at Sacramento on 5 October 1966. The performance in San Francisco on 20 September 1966 is briefly reviewed in OPERA December 1966 p.952 . The HRE LPs are incorrectly stated as being of a performance in Italy with Rolando Panerai as Riccardo. I do not know if the recording issued by live-rare-opera is of a performance in Sacramento or in San Francisco.

Comments:- The CDRs issued by �The Opera Lovers� are listed on the website http://www.operalovers.ca (hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM). The date of the performance recorded is given here as 19 November 1983, but �La Fille du Regiment� was not performed on that day. It is possible that the recording is of the performance on 19 October 1983. None of the performances of �La Fille du regiment� at the MET in 1983 was broadcast so presumably the recording was made �in-house�.

Comments:- The �foyer� CDs are a recording of a performance at La Scala (16 March 1972; see OPERA, June 1972 p.549 ), but according to Sergio Segalini (OPÉRA INTERNATONAL novembre 1997 No.218 p.24) the Legato CDs (labeled as being conducted by Gavazzeni, although the year is given as 1973) are in fact a recording of a performance in Genoa (1975). Details of this are listed separately. It is possible (probable?) that the recording on the LPs from HRE is also of the performance in Genoa in view of the fact that Legato Classics were the successor to HRE

Comments:- Recording of a performance in the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden (April 1977). It appears that none of the performances of Faust at Covent Garden in April 1977 was broadcast, so, presumably this recording was made �in-house�.

Seletzky EMIs 1997 remastering �is dominated by shrill upper-frequency distortion and accentuated tape hiss - in short, unlistenable�. According to Nuno Miguel Marqques (Opera-l Sun,17 Mar 2002 10:38:50) a version of this recording made from the tapes in possession of Radio Difusão Portuguesa was issued on CD in a limited edition in December 2000 in Portugal. The recording issued by Premiere is a copy of this and that on The Mike Richter CD-ROM is a also a �copy�, but in MP3 format.
