One of Verdi's most intriguing masterpieces, this performance distinctly captures the opera's unique, tragic grandeur. Franco Corelli sings the title role, and the cast includes Leonie Rysanek, Irene Dalis, Nicolae Herlea, Giorgio Tozzi and Hermann Uhde. Kurt Adler conducts the Met's orchestra and chorus in the opera's four-act version. 2 CD's taken from the March 7, 1964 broadcast.
