Comments:- *Recording of a performance (or of two performances) in the Nationaltheater, Munich. The performance on Mike Richter's CD-ROM and that on the CDs issued by live-rare-opera is stated to be that of 15 November 1980 and Faust is given as Giacomo Aragall wheras Faust was stated to be Luis Lima in Celestial Audio's online catalogue, so probably this recording is of a different performance. The performance on 30 October 1980 in which Luis Lima sang Faust is reviewed in ORPHEUS Dezember 1980 S.799-S.801.
