About this record
Waldo De Los Rios's orchestral arrangements of Verdi and Donizetti landed on the French Hispavox label in 1973 as a 45 single pressed at C.I.D.I.S. Louviers, a facility whose dead-wax stamps appear across multiple matrix variants on this catalogue number.
The release notes confirm recording in Spain but manufacture in France, a detail that anchors this pressing to a specific geographic and industrial moment in European classical reissue production.
What drives its value
This single trades in a narrow band: Mint copies reach 4.32 USD, while VG+ examples settle at 2.95 USD and Good+ drops to 1.14 USD. The lowest asking price across 139 active listings sits at 0.1 USD, reflecting the title's abundance in the secondary market.
Community data shows 713 collectors own a copy against only 3 who want one, a want-to-have ratio that underscores its status as a common pressing rather than a sought rarity. As a French issue of a Spanish recording, it occupies a middle tier within Waldo De Los Rios's discography—neither the original Spanish pressings nor the rarer territorial variants command premium pricing.
Condition matters here, but not dramatically: the spread from Mint to VG is modest, suggesting that even worn copies retain modest utility for collectors completing a run.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number 2022 020 on the Hispavox label and the imprint statement 'Imp. C.I.D.I.S.
Louviers' printed on the back cover. The dead-wax runout will show one of four documented matrix variants—2022 020 1 380 CIDIS A 4 1, 2022 020 2 380 CIDIS A A 4 2, 2022 020 1 380 CIDIS AΛ 22, or A 2022 020 2 380 CIDIS AA 34—each confirming the C.I.D.I.S. pressing plant.
The release notes also reference an alternate price-code variant catalogued as 5848004 on the back cover; check for this variant marker to distinguish pressings. The record carries no barcode.
Grade by examining the vinyl surface under light for hairline scratches and the label for ring wear; even VG+ copies show light play marks but retain full legibility and stable playback without audible surface noise during quiet passages.

Frequently asked
How much is a VG+ copy of this single worth?
According to the price guide, a VG+ example is valued at 2.95 USD. This reflects the title's common circulation and modest collector demand—only 3 want it against 713 who already own one.
Why does the price guide show a lowest price of 0.1 USD when VG grades at 2.05 USD?
The 0.1 USD figure represents the floor asking price across 139 active listings, likely from bulk lots or heavily damaged stock. The graded price guide (2.05 USD for VG) reflects the value of a playable, reasonably clean copy; the lowest price is a market outlier, not a typical transaction.
Is this the Spanish original pressing or a French reissue?
This is a French pressing. The release notes state 'Enregistré en Espagne / Recorded in Spain' but also 'Made and Printed in France' and 'Imp. C.I.D.I.S. Louviers,' confirming manufacture at the Louviers facility. It is a territorial issue, not the original Spanish release.
What do the different matrix runout strings mean?
Four matrix variants are documented for this catalogue number: 2022 020 1 380 CIDIS A 4 1, 2022 020 2 380 CIDIS A A 4 2, 2022 020 1 380 CIDIS AΛ 22, and A 2022 020 2 380 CIDIS AA 34. All confirm the C.I.D.I.S. Louviers pressing plant. These variants likely represent different pressing runs or stamper generations but do not command different prices.
Should I buy this single for my collection?
At 2.95 USD for a VG+ copy, this is an inexpensive way to sample Waldo De Los Rios's orchestral work. However, the want-to-have ratio (3 want, 713 have) and 139 copies currently for sale indicate it is not scarce. Buy it if you enjoy the arrangements or are building a complete Waldo discography; do not expect appreciation or rarity value.
