Description:

Juha Op. 74 (1934), First performance / Ensiesitys: The Finnish Opera / Suomalainen Oopera, Helsinki, 17.2.1935. Cond. / Joht. Armas Järnefelt. Produced in 1977 by the Finnish Broadcasting Company, TV 1 Recorded at the House of Culture, Helsinki, 2.-9.12.1977 84-page booklet contains translations of original notes in French (not included) by Jean-Claude Fantapié, synopsis and libretto into English and Finnish, along with 3 pp. of shots from the 1979 TV movie of the opera for which this recording was made. Phonographic copyright given as ? 1988 Ondine Oy in booklet, ? 1988 Ondine Inc. on back. © 1977 The Finnish Broadcasting Company, TV 1 Disc 1: Tableaux 1.-3. (57:58) Disc 2: Tableaux 4.-6. (41:01) Total Time: 98'59 There is no full tracklist in booklet or inserts, but the start of each track and its duration are marked where appropriate in the printed libretto; I include these in the tracklist above, adding textual cues. The booklet also (p.4) supplies page references for the beginning of each "tableau". Recording produced with support from the Society of Finnish Composers, the Foundation for the Promotion of Finnish Music (LUSES) and the Performing Music Promotion Centre (ESEK). The set's accompanying materials identify it as a 1988 digital remix of a recording originally produced by the Finnish Broadcasting Company in 1977, and Ondine's website gives a release date of May 1988. This cannot, however, apply to the copy to hand, since it carries both SID codes and the wordmark "Sony DADC". This did not appear in the matrix of CDs until Spring 2000, when the former pressing plant DADC Austria was re-branded Sony DADC. (See [l34825].) A rough TPQ of Spring 2000 seems fair.
