Comments:- Recording of a performance at the Salzburg Festival (27 July 1950). According toHunt part of the Olympic version derives from a 1953 performance (John Hunt «The Furtwängler Sound» 5th Edition, 1996, p.72); The recording on EJS 419 is probably from a different performance (See «EJS Discography» p.398, «More EJS» pp.604-605). The Melodram LPs are advertized in GRAMOPHONE December 1983 p.739 and the Discocorp LPs are (were?) listed in Parnassus Records' online catalogue

Comments:- The recording issued by the Omega Opera Archive is listed in their online catalogue (see CLORLINK.HTM) where it stated that their recordings are available «on CD, cassette or reel-to-reel tape». The date of the performance recorded is given here as June 1961. If the partial cast that they list is correct then this date is almost certainly incorrect as according to the «Chronik der Wiener Staatsoper 1945-1995» (p.635) Svanholm only sang Walther von Stolzing at the Vienna Staatsoper twice after World War II, on 27 September 1952 and 4 October 1954. As Karl Böhm conducted «Die Meistersinger» for the first time in Vienna (after World War II) on 24 February 1953 (ibid. p.303) the most likely date for the recording issued by Omega seems to be 4 October 1954. The performance took place in the Theater an der Wien.

Comments:- Recording of a performance at the Vienna State Opera (14 November 1955). This performance was badly reviewed by PH in OPERA, January 1956 p.28 . According to the review in the ARSC Journal the recording on the Melodram CDs is of a performance on 4 November 1955, a date which seems very unlikely given that the rebuilt opera house opened on 5 November 1955
