Comments:- Recording of a performance at the MET (20 January 1934). Both Steiger (Opern: Ein Verzeichnis aller Aufnahmen, 2000) and Ashmam (INTERNATIONAL RECORD REVIEW February 2002 p.29) list an un-numbered UORC recording with this cast and conductor, but attribute it to a performance in San Francisco in 1932. This appears to be a mistake as according to Bloomfield �The San Francisco Opera� pp.385-387 Don Giovanni was not performed at all in San Francisco in 1932. This error is corrected in �Opern Diskographie� by Steiger p.296. The CDRs issued by �The Opera Lovers� are listed on the website http://www.operalovers.ca (hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM).

Comments:- Recording of a performance at the MET (6 December 1947). See �Saturday Afternoons at the Old Met� pp.317-318. The recording issued by the GOmega Opera Archive is listed in their online catalogue (see CLORLINK.HTM). The source is described as �Fair to good private acetates. Missing 30 sec Beg. Act 2� and the conductor is incorrectly stated to be �Busch�. However, according to �Annals of the Metropolitan Opera� the conductor was Max Rudolf. It is stated in �Saturday Afternoons at the Old Met� (p.317) �the opera was assigned to Busch, but illness compelled him to relinquish it to Max Rudolf�. Omega has issued another recording of this performance (480 & 411) and the conductor is listed correctly as Rudolph in their catalogue.

Comments:- Recording of a performance at the Salzburg Festival (27 July 1953). According to Henry Fogel in his review in FANFARE of the CDs issued by Music & Arts �Until now most reissues of a Siepi/Furtwängler Don Giovanni were of the 1954 performance, even if they were labeled 1953. CD editions on Fonit Cetra, Hunt, and the Bruno Walter Society, and LP editions on Foyer, Cetra Live Opera, and Morgan, were all labeled 1953 but were, in fact 1954.�.
