Comments:- *The CDRs issued by «The Opera Lovers» are listed on the website http://www.operalovers.ca (hyperlink in CLORLINK.HTM). The date of the performance recorded is given as «December 2000», the conductor as «de Billy» and three cast members are listed: van der Walt, Bankl, Gens. There were three performances of «Die Zauberflöte» the the Teatro Liceo in December 2000 on 23, 27, 28. The performance on 28 is reviewed in ÓPERA ACTUAL No.44 marzo-abril 2001 p.44 and was conducted by Elizabeth Attl. That on 23 is reviewed on p.42, but Bankl did not sing in this. So, presumably, the recording on the CDRs issued by «The Opera Lovers» is of the performance on 27 December 2000. The cast listed above, except for Bankl, is that given for the performance on 23 December 2000. Obviously there may be errors.
