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.

Comments:- Recording of a performance given by the Dresdner Staatsoper in the Teatro La Fenice di Venezia (15 June 1982). Mondo Music assigns the role of Ochs to Theo Adam, but according to «Il Teatro La Fenice - Cronologia degli spettacoli 1938-1991» p.378 this role was sung by Werner Haselau on 16 June. As there was no performance of Der Rosenkavalier on 16 June (ibid. p.371) this is presumably a misprint for 15 June. See also ORPHEUS Dezember 2000 S.1, S.74
