Comments:- Audio and video recording made at the Valle D'Istria Festival, Martina Franca. The audio recording was made at both performances on 28 & 31 July 1990, but the video recording was probably made at just one of them. There is a review in OPERA, Festival Issue 1990 p.103. The cast listed above is that given in «Opera '91 Annuario EDT dell'Opera Lirica in Italia» p.125. The DVD issued by House of Opera is listed in their online catalogue of «New DVDs 22 January 2005» where the conductor is stated incorrectly to be «Arena».
