A comment flew by (but seems to have disappeared) that perhaps it's Arleen Augér -- not only does it not sound like her, but she had retired the previous year, after which she faced 3 brain surgeries before dying painfully in June 2993. My current guess is Angela Maria Blasi.
Extraordinaire interprétation ! Bravo !
I really think Celibidache was in his element here.
Who are the soloists? The soprano sounds a bit Janowitz-ish, but this is certainly too late to be her, especially in this piece.
