Suggestions

The present wording ("Merriman sang ...", "She was also featured ...") does not always make clear which statement refers to live performances and which to recordings (or both). Maybe this could be distinguished more clearly?

In any case, what we can say in terms of opera (symphonic and recital recordings not included), is this:

Her singing is documented in ca. 9 operatic recordings (5 roles) and 2 works of sacred music (Messiah with Hermann Scherchen, Messa da Requiem with Eugene Ormandy), covering the years 1944-1962.^[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:A61:10DD:AB01:45F1:2A2B:D330:230 (talk) 06:53, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
