Yet again I have re-uploaded this recording. I am very hopeful you will download
this again in full. The links are to completely new uploaded files, smaller than
previously, and therefore more numerous. Re-assembled they will give you exactly
what I offered before, divided differently. You will not be able to mix and
match. .html suffixes may need to be removed.
In 1996 a great friend recorded a wonderful performance of Glinka's " A Life for
the Tsar" (AKA "Ivan Susanin") during a visit to the Opera House in Zürich. John
Allison in his review in "Opera" [October 1996, p.1229] is very impressed and
says Salminen's performance: "..from start to finish confirmed this as one of
the great bass roles… he sang with sculpted magnificence". Great applause!
Recordings of this formative and splendid opera are not common so I hope this
very good in-house recording is enjoyed by many.
Best wishes
