Reginald Goodall

Background: For the first time ever, the legendary centenary production of Wagner's The Mastersingers, conducted by Reginald Goodall is released as a 4-CD set on Chandos Opera in English. Following the live broadcast the recording sadly disappeared into the archives and has since become one of the most talked about ‘lost’ performances.

This 4-CD set has subsequently been re-mastered from a BBC Radio live broadcast. The sound quality reflects the fact it is a 1968 ‘live’ recording and some deterioration is evident although this does not detract from the fantastic performance value.
