Rigoletto (excerpts)

~ Release by Giuseppe Verdi; Eva Wagner, Pedro Pirez, Rudolf Kalmann, Horst Wieger, Choir of the Munich State Opera, Nürnberg Symphony Orchestra, Eberhardt von Billerbeck (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

the seemingly obscure opera singers credited in this release (together with the choir/orchestra/conductor) suggest they might all be fictitious. none of the singers and the conductor seem to be traceable online, aside from the Rigoletto and Aida excerpts released by the equally questionable classical label Emperor. see Rudolf Kalmann's discogs profile for example.

the suspected fictitious artists, and who they relate to:
Eva Wagner => Eva Illes (soprano)
Pedro Pirez => Juan Perez (tenor)
Rudolf Kalmann => Rudolf Knoll (baritone)
Horst Wieger => Ernst Wiemann (bass)
