According to the uploader, this was the first time that a premiere was transmitted live from La Scala di Milano. The performance took place on Tuesday, December 7, 1976, at 21:00. The principals: Placido Domingo as Otello, Piero Cappuccilli as Jago, and Mirella Freni as Desdemona. It is a spectacular performance of historic importance, with splendid shots of Carlos in the pit and backstage afterwards.
