Comments:- *Aida was performed at Verona with this cast on 1, 6, 10, 14 August 1961. See OPERA November 1961 p.714. A video recording is listed in Live Opera Heaven's «October 2002 Update» (C 1199) with this cast and the date given as 1 August 1961, but with the conductor stated to be Gavazenni. This seem to be incorrect as the conductor on that date was Molinari-Pradelli. Gavazenni did conduct Aida at Verona on 22 and 29 July 1961, but the Aida in those performances was Gabriella Tucci (see the cast listings in the Verona programmes).

Comments:- *According to the notes issued with the CDs issued by On Stage this recording is of a performance at the Philadelphia Lyric Opera on February 20, 1968. According to the chronology in «Corelli - A Man, A Voice» by Marina Boagno (p.263) Corelli and Arroyo did sing in Aida in Philadelphia on this date, but the other roles were taken by M. Auseni, M. Dunn and B Giaiotti, and the performance was conducted by Guadagno. Aida was performed with the cast given at the MET on 31 May 1971. On this occasion the role not listed above, the Sacerdotessa, was sung by Carlotta Ordassy. What appears to be the same recording has been issued by Premiere Opera (CDNO 147-2)

Compact Disc - Melodram MEL 26516 (+Don Carlo - excerpts - Cleva - MET - 1970) {2CDS}

Recordings of Aida by Giuseppe Verdi are surveyed in the following publications:-

High Fidelity January 1960 Vol.10 No.1 p.98, October 1963 Vol.13 No.10 p.146; HARRIS p.17; Opera on Record p.304; CELLETTI p.815; MARINELLI p.190; Opera on CD(1) p.57 (2) p.64 (3) p.72; L'Avant Scène Opéra No.4 p.114; MET p.643; MET(VID) p.400; PENGUIN p.461; Opera Quarterly Vol.2 No.4 p.68; GIUDICI p.1012 (2) p.1636; Opéra International No.258 juin 2001 p.22

Comments:- *It seems likely that this is a recording of part of a performance at the MET on 28 November or 8 December 1970 as these appear to be the only two occasions when these singers sang together at the MET. The role of Amonasro was sung by Cornell MacNeil and Mario Sereni on these dates. The date of February 1970 given by Hunt (A Notable Quartet p.94) appears to be incorrect as according to the «Annals of the Metropolitan Opera» Aida was not performed in that month. The CDs issued by Melodram are listed in Bongiovanni's catalogue (December 1994) p.12. Gala has also issued excerpts with these singers on their CDs entitled «Christa Ludwig - Rarities» (GL 100.596) and assigned them incorrecty to a performance at the MET on 28 February 1970. This mistake probably arose from the eleven being read as a Roman «II» by someone

The CDRs issued by House of Opera were listed in their online catalogue for a short time in March 2003. Here one of cast members was given as (Alberto?) Rinaldi (Amonasro?) and the conductor was given as (Romano?) Gandolfi. The review in OPERA (September 1987 pp.1072-1073) states the «The casting was erratic: two different Radames, three Aidas, and two Kings in five days», but the cast given for the performance on 5 January is the same as that given above. However, the conductor is stated (like by House of Opera) to be Romano Gandolfi.
