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.

Comments:- According to the notes issued with the CDs issued by On Stage this recording is of a performance at the Philadelphia Lyric Opera on February 20, 1968. According to the chronology in «Corelli - A Man, A Voice» by Marina Boagno (p.263) Corelli and Arroyo did sing in Aida in Philadelphia on this date, but the other roles were taken by M. Auseni, M. Dunn and B Giaiotti, and the performance was conducted by Guadagno. Aida was performed with the cast given at the MET on 31 May 1971. On this occasion the role not listed above, the Sacerdotessa, was sung by Carlotta Ordassy. What appears to be the same recording has been issued by Premiere Opera (CDNO 147-2)

Comments:- Recording of a performance at the MET. There were performance with the cast listed above on 12 and 15 April 1968 and on 20 April the cast was the same except that Ulrica was sung by Jean Madiera. The excerpts issued by Gala are a «filler» on the CDs of the recording of Der fliegende Holländer. Presumably the recording was made at one of the dates just mentioned, but I do not know which. As none of these performances was broadcast the recording must have been made «in-house».
