How wonderful!

Thsnks ..👍

Interesting cast and conductor - one year after "La juive" (aka "The Richard Tucker Show") and almost 6 years after the two-part performance of "Les Troyens." Unless I am mistaken, this was the one and only time that New York got to see and hear Nicolai Gedda sing Young Werther live and in person. Rita Gorr had recorded Charlotte in a complete recording of "Werther" the year before, for the French label Ades, with Jesus Etcheverry conducting the French National Radio/Television Orchestra and Chorus. Albert Lance sang Werther; Gabriel Bacquier sang Albert; Mady Mesple sang Sophie; Julien Giovannetti sang Le bailli; Robert Andreozzi and Jacques Mars sang Schmidt and Johann. The recording was produced by Jean-Louis Caussou. And 4 years after this performance, Nicolai Gedda recorded the title role in a complete recording of "Werther" for EMI/Angel, with Georges Pretre conducting L'Orchestre de Paris and the children's chorus of the French National Radio/Television. Victoria de los Angeles sang Charlotte; Roger Soyer sang Albert; Mady Mesple sang Sophie ("Do you how to say "five-year rule"? I knew you would."); Jean-Christophe Benoit sang Le bailli; Andre Mallabrera and Christos Grigoriou sang Schmidt and Johann. The recording was produced by Victor Olof. (Was this the last complete operatic recording produced by Olof? It may well be, since he died 5 years later, in 1974, and he was 73 years old when this recording was made.)

Maybe some Forza 13/04/1960 exists in your pocket?
