R. WAGNER "LOHENGRIN" Tanglewood, August 21/22/23,1965, Konya, Amara, Gorr, Dooley, Hines, Leinsdorf

This was performed at the Tanglewood Music Festival in Lenox Massachusetts on three successive days. Act One August 21st, Act Two August 22nd and Act Three August 23rd, 1965. From the original program notes: " The present performance in concert form preserves the entire score, and restores a considerable cut in Lohengrin's so-called "narrative" in Act III which Wagner made for the early productions. The cut was restored at Bayreuth in 1936 and 1937, but has not been used in this country." This is a broadcast in fabulous sound.
