World premiere, Theatre des Champs-Elysees, Paris, 3 March 1961, broadcast by the RTF. Two sources. (1) The cast sheet distributed with the recording, in the folder as "Sabbatai Zevi - 1961.03.03 (Bruck, Paris) cast.rtf": a CD-R insert giving the roles with their singers, "Chorus and National Orchestra of the RTF Paris / Charles Bruck", "Recorded live Paris (Theatre des Champs-Elysees), March 3, 1961 / World Premiere", and per-act timings -- CD1 77:17 (Prologue 16:53, Acte 1 33:12, Acte 2 27:02), CD2 61:20 (Acte 3 30:34, Acte 4 30:41). Those six timings match the six act files in the folder to the second, so the sheet documents these exact files. (2) French Wikipedia, "Alexandre Tansman": "Sabbatai Zevi, le faux Messie, fresque lyrique en un prologue et 4 actes. Livret de Nathan Bistritzky (1957-1958). Creation, Paris, 3 mars 1961." -- independent confirmation of the work, its shape and the premiere date. Two roles on the sheet are not entered: "Le Sultan - Louis Amade" and "Le Grand Vizir - Georges Abdoun". findopera holds a Raymond Amade and a Gerard Abdoun, but those differ in the given name rather than in spelling, and attaching the wrong singer is worse than leaving the role empty. "Raphael Bachi - Joseph Peiron" and "Abraham Roubia - Bernard Cotret" ARE entered, as Joseph Peyron (6229) and Bernard Cottret (4076): those are one-letter surname slips for French singers of exactly this period and repertoire, with no other candidate of either name.
