Comments:- The video recording on the DVD issued on the Encore label appears to be of a performance in the Théâtre Royal de la Monnaie in April 1985. The performance on 9 April 1985 was a «Gala de l'Union de la Presse Musicale Belge» and the recording may be of this performance. There were performmances with the same cast on 13, 19, 21, 24 April 1985. The cast listed above is that given on the website of La Monnaie (hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM). The DVD-R issued on the Encore label is (was?) listed on the website of «berkshire record outlet inc.» (hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM). Here the year of the performance recorded is given (incorrectly?) as 2003.

Comments:- Recording of a performance at the Bayreuth Festival. The date given in mr. tape's catalogue is «6/27/71» which seems unlikely as the Festival did not start until 24 July 1971. However, Die Walküre was performed on 27 July 1971. There were 3 cycles of the Ring in 1971. Caterina Ligendza sang Brünhilde in the first two and Berit Lindholm sang in the third. See OPERA Festival Issue 1971 pp.68-72. A recording of the performance of Die Walküre in which Berit Lindholm sang was broadcast by BBC Radio 3 on 7 November 1971.
