TANNHÄUSER:Wagner
Original Air Date: 02/15/1992
Perick; Johns, Evans, Troyanos, Schmidt, Rootering
SID.19320426
The only performer of special interest is William Johns. Jon Fredric West (later Tannhauser with Sharon Sweet) is the Walther. Johns has some good outings in his Wagnerian assignments, and I love Tannhauser but my memory of Anne Evans and Andreas Schmidt is limited. Tannhauser is an impossible role, Elisabeth and Wolfram are not. A shame Bryn Terfel never broadcast or recorded it, I saw a terrific matinee with him, Sharon Sweet, and JF West under a very hot Levine in 1997.
