Elégie
Lyrics by Louis Gallet
Ô doux printemps d'autrefois, vertes saisons, vous
avez fui pour toujours!
Je ne vois plus le ciel bleu; je n'entends plus les chants joyeux des oiseaux!
En emportant mon bonheur, Ô bien-aimé, tu t'en es allé!
Et c'est en vain que revient le printemps! Oui! Sans
retour, avec toi, le gai soleil, les jours riants sont partis!
Comme en mon coeur tout est sombre et glacé, tout est flétri pour toujours!
Elegy
English Translation
O sweet Spring of yesteryear, green seasons, you have fled forever!
I no longer see the blue sky, I no longer hear the joyous songs of the birds!
You have fled, my love, and with you has fled my happiness.
And it is in vain that the spring returns! For along with you, the cheerful sun, the laughing days have gone!
As my heart is dark and frozen, so all is withered for evermore!

What an incredible recording ! Caruso in all his splendor !
Two brilliant artists 👏👏👏
Oh sublime, his golden voice and the haunting violin. I want to give this ten stars every time I return to listen, again, again, again.
Ten stars are not enough for this sublime recording
Thank you for this wonderful gift!!!!!!!!
Great.... fantastic... I have tears in my eyes
Magnifique. Merci du fond du coeur.
Um sonho...ainda me recordo deste som dos antigos gira-discos...sim, dos mais antigos... 💔🍁🥀💯👌
Obrigada....🌹💓
Un miracolo, veramente...
Thank you
Lovely
Funny, at the very end the hissing reduces a lot. I wonder would it be difficult to 'remaster' and remove some of that hiss
Yes, I could have reduced the hiss with the program I use for videos, but chose to keep it as it is. The record is more than 100 years old.
I can't bear records played on Victrolas. PLEASE buy a tube stereo amp and a separate preamplifier with a pair of Vintage Altec 15" in 5' cabinets. You'll never play on a Victrola again. Ca. 1962 tube amps and preamps were the epitome of sound production. Much better than all these "remasters".
