Note
  1. No credits information on item. Credits information found in press release for the November 28, 1983 premiere of The Games and program for October 1984 performance of The Games for the Brooklyn Academy of Music Next Wave festival in the Meredith Monk Archive, call number LPA Mss 2006-001, Box 17, Folders 3 and 4.
  2. Two camera angles of the performance. Disc 1 is from one camera (Mitte I), and Disc 2 is from another camera (Mitte II).
  3. Video image is very dark. The production seems to start with some projected imagery that isn't captured well on video so Disc 1's image is not discernable until about 0:03:00.
