One of the best duets of Telramund and Ortrud that I have ever heard. Vinay, how perfect Wagnerian baritone is. Silja is undoubtedly one of the greatest discoveries of the 60s as a Wagnerian soprano.
@erstenorn no, the commercial recording is a compilation of several performances and the dress rehearsal. This one is an unedited live broadcast. Of course there parts will stem from then same show.
My first Lohengrin o LP. And even this one with a different pitch (incerdibly high, how do the woodwinds do that?? impossible...). Unfortunately cut in act III.
Varnay!! Wunderbar
