Inclusion in the list / Missing roles
Exactly what is the criteria for a role appearing on this list? Why, for instance, does the Berlioz Requiem have a place on it, but not the Verdi, or for that matter, Andrew Lloyd Webber? Why is a symphonic vocal role like Das Lied von der Erde included, but not the Beethoven 9th? Why is a musical theater role like Man of La Mancha cited, but not My Fair Lady (as one of Alfred P. Doolittle's friends, which was, IIRC, Domingo's first ever professional stage appearance)? DrGeoduck (talk) 16:46, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi DrGeoduck, I suggest we start a list of "missing roles" here and include whatever information we find. Here is a first batch of roles (role name, opera, composer, debut date, theatre/location) that are not yet in the list:
- Arturo, Lucia di Lammermoor, Donizetti, 10/28/1961, Guadalajara
- tenor part, 9th Symphony, Beethoven, 08/10/1962, Mexico City
- tenor part, The Messiah, Händel, 12/10/1965, Boston
- tenor part, Elijah, Mendelssohn, 05/26/1966, Mexico City
- tenor part, Creation Mass, Haydn, 02/23/1967, Boston
- tenor part, Requiem, Verdi, 05/20/1969, London
- tenor part, Missa Solemnis, Beethoven, 05/23/1970, Rome (St. Peter's Basilica)
- tenor part, Requiem, Webber, 1984, studio recording
- Antonio, Luna, Cano, 1997, studio recording
Please write information about the roles you think are missing (e.g. info on the My Fair Lady LP, etc.) here below. The more information the better. Once we agree on the roles to add, we can at some point put them into the list. (Please do better not muck around with the table directly... Thanks.) 83.78.141.25 (talk) 20:00, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
- Does the My Fair Lady LP (the one in Spanish) precede or follow the stage appearance of this role? 83.78.141.25 (talk) 20:15, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
