    Anybody can tell me something more about this fantastic video ? How come Miss Zschau is not popular as one of the best Elektras if not the best ? We know so little of her ! Please DATE OF THIS PERFORMANCE.

    The first night of each Proms season is usually, I believe, the second Friday in July (the last night is always the second Saturday in September...). This was a first night performance in 1993 so an old calendar will tell you the exact date....

    Absolutely Wonderful. This is absolutely some of the most wonderful Dramatic Singing I've ever heard. (Especially from Voigt.) I'm Dumbfounded.

    So beautiful, so good. But unavoidably it looks like an insane version of Streisand and Mrs Bucket (from 'Keeping Up Appearances.' )

    Ms. Zschau was unknown to me, but it doesn't mind. She's just a terrible singer. Her singing technique is absolutely defective, her voice ugly, her diction inexistant, no one can understand a word... Besides her, Voigt seems the best soprano in the world, though she's just average.

    Perfectly forgettable.
