Recordings of Don Quichotte by Jules Massenet are surveyed in the following publications:-

Comments:- Video recording of a performance at the Opéra Bastille. The Video issued by Premiere is listed in «New Fall 2003 Video Cassette Releases» where the year is given as 2001. However, it appears that Don Quichotte was not given in Paris during that year with Samuel Ramey, and it seems more likely that the recording is of a performance in September or October 2000. See OPÉRA INTERNATIONAL No.251 novembre 2000 p.25.
