===============
After a negative review of a performance at the Teatro dell’Opera under Lovro von Matačić, Luigi Bellingardi in “Opera“ magazine wrote:
“To underline the disappointment in this “Tristan“, on February 1st the RAI gave an exemplary concert version of the same work. It was also sung in German, and was conducted by Zubin Mehta with a superb array of singers: Birgit Nilsson, Helge Brilioth, Beverly Wolff, Siegmund Nimsgern, and Peter Meven. What we witnessed at the Opera was definitely a kitsch “Tristan“; the RAI’s was memorable in every way. Mehta, tackling the opera for the first time in his career, conducted from memory and had taken the orchestra through fifteen days of rehearsal. Nilsson was in splendid form, and Brilioth, while not quite possessing the power of the true “Heldentenor“, was outstanding in intonation and phrasing. Mehta spared nothing of his temperament and conducted with a vehemence and nerve-racking lucidity that was almost hallucinatory. Another splendid endeavour of the RAI, therefore, which is all to the credit of Francesco Siciliani, the head of their music section.“
