Comments:- Recording of excerpts of Acts 1,2,3 from a performance at the Teatro alla Scala. The partial cast listed by Handelman in his calalog dated November 2000 is Frazzoni, Corelli, and Bastianini and the date is given as 20 January 1960. However, according to the archive that used to be on the La Scala website (http://www.lascala.com) Tebaldi, not Frazzoni sang on this date. Frazzoni sang in the performances on 24, 28, and 31 January, but in these performanes Gérard was sung by Ugo Savarese, not Ettore Bastianini. The cast listed above is that for 24, 31 January. On the 28 January Roucher was sung by Silvio Maionica and Fouquier Tinville by Vittorio Tatozzi.
