Comments:- Recording of a performance at La Scala (31 May 1969). The cast listed above may be incorrect as according to «La Scala 67-92 - Cronoglogia Opere, Balletti, Concerti» p.11 Rolando Panerai, not Wladimiro Ganzarolli, sang the role of Lescaut in this performance. In fact, it appears that Ganzarolli never sang the role of Lescaut at La Scala.
