The luminous Gundula Janowitz makes a rare if not downright unique appearance as Elisabeth in Wagner’s Tannhäuser on today’s episode of parterre saturday afternoon starting at 2:00 PM. Rene Kollo, Wolfgang Brendel and Mignon Dunn also star in this 1972 performance conducted by Wolfgang Sawallisch. 

Don’t worry, cher public: should this YouTube link (of the whole performance) get blocked, I’ve got a backup copy in the podcast folder.
