Comments:- Recording of a performance of Rimsky-Korsakov's version (modified by von Karajan) at the Salzburg Festival (See OPERA Festival Issue 1965 pp.31-35 High fidelity/MUSICAL AMERICA November 1965 pp.204-207). According to the review in OPERA Karajan confused �the plot with further cuts, placing the Pimen scene for some strange reason before the coronation�. The Berkshire Record Outlet list on their website (hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM) a recording (Encore CD 140-2) which appears to be of this performance, but attribute it to Salzburg 1964 with the conductor named as �Radev�. According to Josef Kraut (Festspiele in Salzburg) Boris Godunov was not performed at Salzburg in 1964 and no conductor named Radev appeared there in the period 1920-1969. However two singers with this surname appeared in Boris Godunov in 1965: Marianne Radev and Gregor Radev.
