Marvelous. de Breville experimenting with a more 'mediaeval' or perhaps musically pre-Raphaelite style. Claire Croiza had the perfect voice, perfect art of phrasing, for these melodies.

78tours- 78 rpm opera......in spite of the faded recording quality on this now 94 year old recording.....Rethberg and DeLuca shine...as the great singing actors they were!

M.lle Bouvier : No Dalila had her class and beauty of tone along with a refined style, truly french

Fabulous.

No one sings, or sang, this aria as well as did Emanuel "Manny" List. The 1937-38 recording of "Die Zauberflöte", conducted by Sir Thomas Beecham, should have been executed in England so that Manny could have been the recording's Sarastro. Instead, the Beecham recording was done in Berlin, and it was too dangerous for List, who was Jewish, to go there. The second-best Sarastro voice of that era, that of Alexander Kipnis, was also denied casting in the recording, for the same reason that List was denied. The actual Sarastro of that recording, Wilhelm Strienz, had much too baritonal a tone quality, and was certainly no match for List or Kipnis at the low end.

Perfection! I love this song so much, and never heard it so beautifully done. Thank you for posting this.

This is very sensitive singing! I love it! Such a shame he died so young.

Il s'agit d'une variante à notre opéra favori Mireille.

Edmond Haraucourt /1856 -1941/- "Rondel de l’adieu" ----------------------------------------------------------------- Partir, c’est mourir un peu, C’est mourir à ce qu’on aime : On laisse un peu de soi-même En toute heure et dans tout lieu. C’est toujours le deuil d’un vœu, Le dernier vers d’un poème ; Partir, c’est mourir un peu, C’est mourir à ce qu’on aime. Et l’on part, et c’est un jeu, Et jusqu’à l’adieu suprême C’est son âme que l’on sème, Que l’on sème en chaque adieu : Partir, c’est mourir un peu…

"Paul Hotter" is Paul KÖTTER (31.10.1898 - 17.9.1974). Not Hans Hotter (obviously), nor a relation of his. This Raatz-Brockmann pupil sang mainly in Hamburg and Frankfurt/Main in the 1930s and 1940s (with guest apperances around Europe until the war made that impossible), and after his rather early retirement as a heldentenor (in 1945) worked in the management of the Frankfurt opera house almost until his death. Few records for Ultraphon,1929/30 (this one here was recorded on January 10, 1930).

Para los expertos en voces de barítono de todos los tiempos, nó conocen a los más importantes y de excelencia como éste barítono aunque tenga una voz muy temblorina, es un gran barítono de un timbre que merece una mención de como se canta y olvidar ese detalle por las facultades de este inmenso barítono y para los expertos un llamado de atención porque tampoco conocen al orgullo de Italia, Matías battistini, son muy cortos para dar un buen programa de ópera y de voces. Este barítono es muy interesante y fuera de lo común. Nó porque sea de mis favoritos, hay muchos barítonos de primerissimo nivel. Este día no trabajé, ayer sobreviví a un día muy especial para mi y mi trabajo pero, salí avante y muy mentalmente cansado emocionalmente pero no me quiebro, saludos cordiales y tengan un excelente día domingo y pueden presumir que tienes un conocido excelente aficionado a la ópera y experto en voces de ópera de todos los tiempos. Bueno asi me han presentado, y para que desmiento edá. Saludos cordiales para ti.

Very nice. I'm not familiar with the singer or the aria. Thanks for posting!

Compared with Litvinne's later Odéon version, this record (replacing a technically faulty one from the previous year) has the great advantage of including the splendidly dramatic coda. Some scholars believe that, despite the statement on the label, Alfred Cortot did not take part in this 1903 version; but if the pianist here is not Cortot, then there was another musician available who was a whole world above the usual standard of studio players, as was the instrument used - no upright piano could have sounded as full-toned as this. I once had a very worn copy of the same record; this one sounds much cleaner.

Amazing

I have the complete recording of this on 78rpm records and it weighs a ton, but she is terrific !

The remarkable timbre of this great singer was unmatched in his slightly more than 15 year career & for roles in Wagner certainly. In addition Andresen utilized a softness underlining his amazing colossal instrument, heard in Sarastro for example, that matched that of Kipnis . Andresen though, IMO, had a more awesome & powerfully sonorous timbre that surpassed Kibnis even & a deeper range as well. These unique & contrasting elements-a comforting lyricism when required as well an awesome mountain of sound set him apart in much of his repertoire in his unfortunate short career. His apparent spiritual, metaphysical, & humanistic approach to the characters he portrayed was at odds with his excesses off stage in regards to alcohol & dietary habits. He became increasingly overweight because of these two factors. I read little about him after 1936 when perhaps his performances became gradually compromised by his declining health resulting in a fatal heart attack in 1940 at only 44 years of age. What a shame. Although I am hardly a huge fan of Wagner, I appreciate his music dramas more because of Andresen. Seeing & hearing him as, for example, Gurnemanz in PARSIFAL would have been memorable but excerpts, at least, fortunately recorded by him in the electrical process, are what exist & I remain grateful for these nevertheless.

Voce "ultavioletta"....da tempesta cosmica. Pertile unico. E poi...una mezzavoce celestiale a temperarne il bagliore ,messa lì senza sforzo alcuno. Immenso Pertile !

By Jove, she had a natural voice, so strains at the high end - extraordinary❤

Immensa e stupenda.

Я просто восхищен

Chanteur brillant! Bon enregistrement pour l'époque.

Гениально!!!

ME PARECE UN MAGNÍFICO TENOR DE LA ANTIGUA ESCUELA.- A LOS 80 AÑOS SUSTITUYÓ EN RIGOLETTO AL TENOR QUE ENFERMÓ BRUSCAMENTE...Y TRIUNFÓ

Extraordinaire chanson populaire interprétée avec brio .....souvent chantee en famille avec emotion 😢😢😢je pense a tous ceux qui sont decedes ....ils doivent chanter la haut avec les anges...❤❤❤

A truly great bass ,superb diction and phrasing -simply nobody like him today.

Magnifique !❤

Oh dear - too much noise suppression, the beginning just cuts in & out, with losses to the beginnings of his phrases... What a pity

Amazing voice.

Merci de cet article. Un bel artiste disparu trop tôt.

Merci de cet enregistrement, et merci Philippe6003 de ces paroles. Un artiste trop tôt, et trop tragiquement, disparu !

Forêt triste et pleine d'ombre Sous la voûte obscure Un soldat au regard sombre Meurt de sa blessure Hirondelle, ouvre ton aile Vole vers ma mère Pour lui porter la nouvelle La nouvelle amère Ah ! dis-lui que son fils meurt Qu'il meurt et l'appelle Mère, tout mon sang s'épuise Entends ma prière Je ne veux pas dans l'église Dormir sous la pierre Donnez-moi sous un grand chêne Un plus large espace Je veux dormir dans la plaine Où tous les ans passe Le grand régiment Le régiment de l'Ukraine !

Quelle précieuse archive, c'est magnifique que la voix de Jeanne Marié de l'Isle ait échappé à l'oubli.

Merci! Bravo!!!!!!! Un grand chanteur et un accompagnement aérien!
