Product Description
CD96118 Kander and Ebb's The Visit (Chita Rivera, John McMartin)
By private request, here's a re-upload of an excellent-quality audience
recording of Kander, Ebb and McNally's THE VISIT, based on Friedrich
Durrenmatt's play DER BESUCH DER ALTER DAME (earlier adapted into an opera
composed by Gottfried von Einem). This comes from the world premiere production
at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago, where it ran from September 21 through
November 3, 2001. I don't have a specific date for this recording.
