Thanks for the upload! This is a gem. By 1985 Jones was singing Die Faerberin, it must have been a treat to hear her singing Die Frau. A superlative singer; the size of her voice was colossal, her upper register was comparable to Nilsson's.
Of course there was the occasion when in Zurich she sang both the Kaiserin and the Garnering. The scheduled Kaiserin cancelled, and G had only done this before She learnt the rest during the day. Ruth Rohner who was in the audience sang from the pit when both had to song together in the last act. There is an article about it on Opera by Till Haberfelt

I love Gwyneth! Of course, sometimes she's questionable, but most times she is absolutely brilliant.
