Comments:- Recording of a performance of the «Swedish» version in the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden (May 1966). The opera was performed with the cast given above on 11, 14, 16 May 1966. None of these performances was broadcast, so this recording was presumably made «in house» (it sounds like it). The performance on 11 May 1966 is reviewed in OPERA July 1966 pp.584-585. The CDRs issued by Premiere are included in «New Releases - October 2006».
