How lucky you are to have this great tenor and, more importantly, great man for a father. I met him personally in Munich in the 70s and he was extraordinarily kind to me. I'll never forget him. He was such a wonderful man. He had a great influence on me. Oh, and by the way, this clip is thrilling and, as others have said, a big tease. What happened to the rest, I wonder....
Purtroppo esiste solo l'intero duetto del primo atto. L'opera completa per la Eurodisc, che doveva avere la Moffo come protagonista, alla fine ebbe Maria Chiara.

Great to hear him sing so well in a role he was less known for and with the best Cio-Cio-San of that era. Do you perhaps have the full duet starting at "Bimba dagli occhi pieni di malia?"
Heard James King several times 1977-1994 at the Met and San Francisco Opera: a total pro, and have not heard his superior as the Kaiser in FRAU OHNE SCHATTEN or Siegmund.
JAMES KING RULES!!!!!!!!!!! MY ALL TIME FAVORITE TENOR!!!!! His Lohengrin moves me to tears, even 30 years after I heard it for the first time

There will never be a Kaiser to match him. He truly owned that role.
wow, where did this clip come from? Any more?
Darn! Why did you cut the video? They sound terrific! Let them finish!!!!
Lukas Miller Maybe the C was not so good.
Does anyone know where the recording of King singing Psalm 91 went? My favorite King clip.
John Carpenter was there ever a response to this question?
Paul Bustin nope
