Thanks you for your lovely comment. You are right, there are some important scenes missing. I am working on making chapters for a DVD, but at 84 and 44 years since I made the film, I am not as productive as I was then. I have tried to contact Jacqueline but without success.

Very beautiful, very moving, and very captivating. I can't wait to see this on DVD when it comes out. There are two scenes missing from the videos in YouTube. They are Isolde's Curse Song and Liebestod sung by Jacqueline van Quaile.

Such voices...such expression! Top hole.

Simply extraordinary singing, Mr. Heater. Thank you and God bless.

@klavierspieler72 Thank you for your kind comment...I just wish that today you could find productions that created the visual the composer intended. It was from watching this film that Giancarlo Menotti hired me to sing the role for his Festival of Two Worlds at Spoletto, Italy in 1968, a CD was made from the Trieste production.

Beautiful! So full of emotion and fantastic voices. What a spectacular duet. Thanks so much for sharing it.

Just googled Claude Heater and we finally see the face of the Ben Hur Jesus. He seems no less sensitive as Tristan. Bravo.

It is wonderful to listen and watch one of the most romantic music with great couple with convincing acting.

We rarely see this type of ideal looking Opera Singers with very convincing acting with great voices in Wagner repertoire. Heater and Van Quaile are superb! It is really a treaure. It is very beautiful scene. Thank you.
