1968 complete cycle

[edit]

Very good article, but to me there is something odd about the first sentence of this section... Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 18:38, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. Truth to tell I broke off to check if it should be "children's" or "childrens'" and neglected to come back and complete the sentence. Many thanks, Mon Général. Tim riley talk 19:06, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(I am always flitting around and forgetting to do the original thing that came into my head...) My other suggestions (not wanting to make work for you): (1) a few more photos (Solti and Culshaw c1960, significant singers (perahps in those 2 x 2 squares you often do); recording sessions are probably copyright), and (2) something on how the recording techniques refined during the sessions influenced the recording of opera more generally, at least at Decca. I had a quick look in New Grove (1997) but there is nothing about techniques, likewise in Opera on Record. I will try to find something else. Another thought: had Solti conducted a cycle in the theatre before starting the project? Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 14:24, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
