I love both those recordings.  Too bad the telecast of the Met's Lulu production has never been released commercially, and a Wozzeck, videotaped in 2001, has never been shown at all.

I also like his Otello, both the RCA recording on CD (Domingo/Scotto/Milnes), and the DVD of the 1978 telecast (Vickers/Scotto/MacNeil), which was finally released commercially just last year on the Met's own label (so maybe there's still some hope for the Berg telecasts).

I didn't even realize there was a tape of either Lulu or Wozzeck--both great productions and definitely worth wider distribution.  Happy to sign a petition...

Wasn't there another thread on this recently?  I recall having posted something about my enthusiasm for
the Levine/CSO Gershwin disc:

and their Holst Planets:
