Comments – Great performance from Karajan at his best and wonderful singing by all the cast members, one of the great Callas performances which established her reputation as one of the finest interpreters of this work, box rather worn but records very fine
Sleeve Condition – VG - Well worn box with light signs of wear and foxing to the inner surfaces, light edge wear, libretto has some foxing but is otherwise intact and legible
Disc Condition – EX+ - Bright clean surfaces, exceptionally light handling marks, exceptionally light spindle marks, Disc 1: EX+/EX+ Disc 2: EX+/EX+ Disc 3: EX+/EX+ seem very little played
