Scope and content
The notes on the back of the box indicate that included are performances of [Marriage of] Figaro, Mendelssohn Violin Concerto, Chopin and others. However, just a recording of Marriage of Figaro appears on it. It is the 1966 Sadler's Wells Opera production, conducted by Charles Mackerras and features Elizabeth as Susanna. Acts 3 and 4 are on side 2 twice, but in the repeat recording the tape ends before the end of the opera. This tape is very brittle and breaks easily.
