The performance on this DVD was recorded when Un ballo in maschera was revived for six performances the following year, with the same cast and with Solti back on the podium. However, 40,000 applications for tickets could not be met, and it may have been some comfort to the ticketless that ORF transmitted the première live on television - not only to Austria but also simultaneously to Japan. The joint enterprise with NHK Tokyo also involved state of the art technical resources.
