Notes
- BIO - Sándor Kónya (September 23, 1923 – May 20, 2002) was a Hungarian tenor, particularly associated with German and Italian roles, especially Lohengrin and Calaf.
Gifted with a shining, spinto instrument, Kónya had an easy top register placing him the category known as "jugendlicher heldentenor" while affording him the full plangency of the Italian roles as well. Kónya left only a small number of commercial recordings, including a 1963 Die Fledermaus, under Oskar Danon; a 1965 Lohengrin, under Erich Leinsdorf, both for RCA Victor, an aria recital for Deutsche Grammophon (Il Trovatore, Meistersinger, Lohengrin, L'elisir d'amore, Martha, etc.), and a recital of songs by Wagner and Verdi, with Otto Guth at the piano (MCA).
He can be heard in a number of live performances, notably as Edgardo, opposite Sutherland. There is one additional recording (Gala) of Der fliegende Holländer at the Met, a live recording, February 16, 1963 under Karl Böhm, Sandor Konya as Erik with George London as Holländer and Leonie Rysanek as Senta – GL 100.728 the CD includes a Bonus Track as Riccardo in Un Ballo in Maschera – recorded April 20, 1968 under Thomas Schippers.
Sándor Kónya retired to Ibiza, Spain, where he died on May 20, 2002, at the age of 78.
