Annotation

odd-one-out in this release group, in terms of artist credits.

the seemingly obscure opera singers credited in this release (together with the choir/orchestra/conductor) suggest they might all be fictitious. none of the singers and the conductor seem to be traceable online, aside from the Rigoletto and Aida excerpts released by the equally suspect classical label Emperor.

the suspected fictitious artists, and who they relate to:
Eva Wagner => Eva Illes (soprano)
Anne Helter => Ruth Hesse (mezzo-soprano)
Pedro Pirez => Juan Perez (tenor)
Rudolf Kalmann => Rudolf Knoll (baritone)
Horst Wieger => Ernst Wiemann (bass)
