The performance on 26 April 1975 (with Ugo Benelli instead of Luigi Alva) is reviewed in OPERA September 1975 p.876. According to the review in FANFARE the sound on the CDs issued by Opera d'Oro is very poor. I do not know if the sound of the CDs issued in their «Grand Tier» series or on those issued by Myto is better.
