Comments:- Recording of a performance broadcast on 9 November 1967. The name of the singer of the role of Guglielmo is given as Victor Konrad Braun in «50 anni di opera lirica alla Rai 1931-1980» p.186, p.271. I have assumed that this is the Canadian baritone usually known as Victor Braun, but this may be incorrect.
