Comments:- Recording of a performance at the Vienna State Opera. Elisabeth Höngen sang Kundry in Acts 1 and 3. See OPERA June 1961 p.393, «...und ich wäre so gerne Primadonna gewesen» by Christa Ludwig pp.114-115. The reviewer in GRAMOPHONE [AB] states that on the RCA CDs Gurnemanz is sung by an unidentified singer in part of the opening scene of Act 1 and according to an article in GRAMOPHONE October 1999 p.15 the CD was subsequently remastered with Hotter singing the entire role. William Youngren (FANFARE May/June 2000 pp.332-333) stated that the «unidentified singer» is Jerome Hines recorded at Bayreuth in 1959 conductedby Knappertsbusch
