One of the delights of attending a matinee performance at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion on a balmy January afternoon is that the open air Pinot Grill, one of the Patina Restaurant Chain, with its gourmet dining and excellent wine list, opens several hours before the 2 p.m. performance.

This recording captures Wagnerian singing at its dramatic best by two of the greatest voices of the twentieth century and prime interpreters of the lead roles. The beauty and purity of Flagstad's singing, captured at the beginning of her worldwide fame, combined with Melchior's heroic scale and nobility creates an unsurpassed performance in this profoundly influential opera. This recording is an early example of the Metropolitan Opera's Saturday matinee broadcasts, which have brought live performances of complete operas into homes throughout the world for more than 75 years.


Performances took place on the following dates: Friday, December 4, 8pm Saturday, December 5, 8pm Sunday, December 6, 2pm matinee Thursday, December 10, 8pm Friday, December 11, 8pm Saturday, December 12, 2pm matinee
