She was a sweet, adorable person to work with, and I am glad that a pirate recording of that performance exists.ť Plácido Domingo in ŤMy First Forty Yearsť p.25.

According to the review in OPERA June 1976 p.565 on the opening night (8 January) ŤAldo Protti was ill and Tonio was sung by Mario D'Anna with complete conviction, but the Prologue was sung by Domingo! He delivered a really memorable performance of it - in a baritonal tessitura, of course, - and immediately began singing the role of Canio without any apparent effortť

Comments:- The recording on the CDRs issued by Premiere appears to be of a performance given by the New York City Opera in Philadelphia on 14 December 1965 (click link below). There was a new production at the City Opera (borrowed from Cincinnati Summer Opera) on 14 October 1965 with repeats on 30 October and 6 November, but Plácido Domingo did not appear in any of these performances. In fact, he only sang Hoffmann once at the City Opera, on 9 November 1966, but neither Sills, nor Treigle sang on that occasion (ŤThe New York City Operať by Martin L. Sokol pp.344-353). The CDRs issued by Celestial Audio are listed on their website under ŤWhat's New ? New Year 2008ť (hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM).

Comments:- The recording on the CDRs issued by HOO appear to be of a performance at the Chicago Lyric Opera on 17 October 1990. These are included in the list of new releases added to HOO's website in December 2003 (12-22-2003). Here the recording is assigmed to Munich and the conductor is given as ŤWakasugiť, However, on the date that they give, 17 October 1990, La Fanciulla del West was performed in Chicago with the singers they give, Zschau, Domingo, Noble, conducted by Bartoletti. According to the Tenorissimo website, which is no longer active, Plácido Domingo has never sung Dick Johnson in Munich. The cast listed above is that given in ŤBraviť by Skrebneski. The Compact Cassettes issued by Lyric are listed in ŤNew Listings - January/February 1991ť. Here the recording is attributed correctly.

Comments:- Recording of a performance at the Boston Opera (April 1966; ). See ŤMy First Forty Yearsť by Plácido Domingo p.46. According to the Performance List in this book Plácido Domingo has only sung in this opera in these two performances in Boston (6, 10 April 1966), and so the statement in the review in OPÉRA INTERNATIONAL (probably taken from the HRE LPs) that the recording is of a performance at the New York City Opera is incorrect

Comments:- The recording on the CDRs issued by The Opera Lovers is probably of a performance at the MET on 11 (or 8) October 1971. The CDRs are listed in their online catalogue where the date of the performance recorded is given as Ť11.11.71ť, but Don Carlo was not performed at the MET on that day. As none of the performances of Don Carlo at the MET in 1971 was broadcast the recording was probably made Ťin-houseť,

Miguel Angel Zapater was in the cast announced in ÓPERA ACTUAL No.15 marzo-mayo 1995 p.70 but I have not been able to confirm that he did sing in the performance on the CDs issued by House of Opera. These are included in the list of new releases added to their website in December 2003 Ť03/12/22ť where the date of the performance recorded is given as 31 May 1995. However, in the announcement in ÓPERA ACTUAL the dates of the performances are given as Ť23, 26 y 29 de Mayo, 1 y 4 de Junioť and according to OPERA (December 1995 p.1458) Plácido Domingo only sang on 26 and 29 May. Walter Fraccaro sang in some performances, presumably Raffaelle, as according to an article in El Mundo dated 23 May 1995, Plácido Domingo was replaced by Antonio Ordoñez as Stiffelio when he withdrew. I am very grateful to Mr. Stuart Williams for drawing my attention to this article.
