Comments:- The �foyer� CDs are a recording of a performance at La Scala (16 March 1972; see OPERA, June 1972 p.549 ), but according to Sergio Segalini (OPÉRA INTERNATONAL novembre 1997 No.218 p.24) the Legato CDs (labeled as being conducted by Gavazzeni, although the year is given as 1973) are in fact a recording of a performance in Genoa (1975). Details of this are listed separately. It is possible (probable?) that the recording on the LPs from HRE is also of the performance in Genoa in view of the fact that Legato Classics were the successor to HRE
