Description:

This 1977 performance captures Richard Cassilly in strong vocal form, offering a compelling reminder of his stature as a Wagnerian tenor—particularly in the role of Tannhäuser. His commanding tone and musical intelligence are on full display, free from some of the strain heard in later recordings. Hildegard Behrens brings a luminous, youthful soprano to Elisabeth, singing with purity and emotional clarity. Eva Randová is a forceful Venus, delivering the role’s fiery edge with confident assurance.

NOTE: Act II is incomplete.
