Comment. The criteria in WP:WikiProject Classical music/Guidelines is from an essay by a WikiProject and does not carry the broad support of wikipedia policy. Further, this guideline section is currently being considered for removal for WP:NPOV concerns, as well as its conflict with the policy at WP:NALBUM.4meter4 (talk) 01:27, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. note that it also fails WP:NALBUM and WP:COPYVIO. The main bulk of the article consists of long paraphrases of critics reviews - these are certainly violations of copyright.Smerus (talk) 07:08, 19 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment, this article has listed reviews from 2 different magazines (so technically meets no. 1 of WP:NALBUM) - Gramophone and Sound & Vision, and although, as i've stated in other similar afds that past consensus amongst classical album wikieditors appears to require more, i'm leaning towards retention of this article as the multiple Gramophone reviews listed by different reviewers over decades points towards the album's significance.

 * Keep per WP:NALBUM. The article's COPYVIO issue has now been addressed - brief quotes from reviews will be supplied in due course. For further coverage, see Opera, October 1977, p. 967; High Fidelity/Musical America, Vo. 27, Issue 2, 1977, p. 277; and Hi-Fi News & Record Review, Vol. 22, Issues 7-12, 1977, p. 103.Niggle1892 (talk) 12:22, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per criteria 1 of WP:NALBUM. The work was reviewed in The New York Times (see here) and on more than one occasion in Gramophone (see here and here). Additionally the work is included in the reference work American Opera Singers and Their Recordings: Critical Commentaries and Discographies Clyde T. McCants, McFarland Publishing, 2004, page 368, and was reviewed in the International Music Guide, Derek Elley, Tantivy Press, page 222, 1978.4meter4 (talk) 16:38, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
