Comments:- A recording of a performance in New Orleans. The overture is played between Acts 1 and 2; the first scene (at Hornachuelos) of the latter is omitted. However, Scene 6 of Act 3 with the «Sleale» duet is included and this is followed by «Al suon del tamburro» from Act 2 Scene 1. This recording is sometimes stated as being of a performance given by the MET on tour in New Orleans, but this appears to be incorrect as it is not listed in the MET Annals, although both Milanov and Del Monaco were singing in La forza del destino at the MET about this time. Also, neither William Herbert nor Norman Treigle is listed in the Annals as being on the MET roster in the 1952-53 and 1953-54 seasons. According to «Mario Del Monaco - Monumentum aere perennius» p.829 Del Monaco sang in La forza del destino in New Orleans on 12 and 14 March 1953 and according to VAI's website (click link below) Acts 1 and 2 of the recording that they issued are of the performance on 14 March and Act 3 is of the performance on 12 March. The CDRs issued on the Encore label are (were?) listed on the website of «berkshire record outlet inc.» (hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM).

Comments:- Recording of a performance in the Teatro Colón, Buenos Aires (11 August 1963). The cast listed above is that given in the Teatro-Colón website (hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM). In some performances the role of Ines was sung by Sofí Schulz and that of un vecchio zingaro by Pino de Vescovi. I do not know if they or the singers listed above sang in the performance recorded. The CDs issued on the Gala label include the following extracts: Act 2 scene 1 from «Stride la vampa» to the end of the scene; Act 4 scene 2 from the beginning of the scene to «Ai nostri monti». These are a «filler» on the CDs which carry the recording of Falstaff conducted by Gui. There is a review on the internet:
