As a young girl she was employed by the Plymouth Cordage Company. When asked to sing at a fair for the benefit of the Ryder Home for Aged People, her performance resulted in a number of prominent city residents banding together to provide tuition for her to study at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston. She subsequently prepared further at the Conservatory Rossini in () and made her operatic debut in 1907 at the Castelfiorentino Teatro Comunale as Mimí in Puccini’s La Bohéme . Upon returning to America, she wed Umberto Tosi of Boston. Her husband, a few years later, was employed by Edison to work in Italy making trial recordings of singers with the possibility of making commercial recordings of their voices in mind. Tosi can be heard announcing various of these artists from the original cylinders housed at the Edison Historic Site on the Marston CD set, Edison Trials . Back to Mrs. Ardizzoni-Tosi, she and her husband and family moved to in 1915 where she performed at the Teatro Colòn, returning to Boston in 1926. Her repertoire included such parts as Gilda, Nedda and Violetta. She made four recorded sides for Victor and two for Columbia around 1911 and two sides for Edison in 1926.

It was reported in, I believe, Musical America (an undated clipping from 1922), that Bye “made a decided hit at his first appearance in Orchestra Hall with the Norwegian Singers’ League. Herman Devries, of the Chicago American , said of him: ‘I consider Mr. Bye one of the best I have heard in Chicago in many a moon.’ ” Interestingly, a clipping dated March 10, 1928 of a review by one F. Q. E. reported Mr. Bye, in a recital as “the latest to climb the ladder to tenordom.” He was “well known to radio audiences” the reviewer reported, this being the “new-fledged tenor’s” first appearance as a tenor. The results? “Mr. Bye lacks nothing in interpretative ability and expressive diction, but his vocalism bore the brunt of some strain. … Judgment in the case of these over-night metamorphoses, must inevitably be postponed until there is further opportunity to judge.” I’ve not read of subsequent opportunities provided him. His son was born in in 1926 and in the son’s obituary (2004, on the Internet) there is mention that the family returned to Norway when young Erik (to become a noted Norwegian journalist, artist, author, film actor, folk singer and popular radio and television personality) was of school age 2457. 10” Victor acous. 73849.

In addition to appearing in most of Italy’s major opera houses (strangely excepting La Scala), he was heard two seasons at the Met, as well as with the Chicago Opera, in Havana, ROSE CARON – painting by Léon Bonnat , Madrid, St. Petersburg, and at Covent Garden, among others. His most frequently performed role seems to have been Count Almaviva (Il Barbiere di Siviglia ), although he appeared in a number of other lyric parts, at the Met these including also Rodolfo (la Boheme ) and Tonio (Daughter of the Regiment ). A 1917 Musical Courier magazine article mentions that he has been approached to make records in the U.S. He said he would do this later (which was never to be). “The work is not foreign to me, for I made records for the leading company in Italy, and they are said to be excellent.” He retired in 1922 and became a noted teacher. 2228. 11” Fonotipia 69167/69168 [XPh4968/XPh4965].

She was with the Met from 1912 through 1920. Her teachers included George Henschel and Victor Maurel. Of Maurel, Curtis described him as “very difficult, very exacting. I have had to work so hard under him that I don’t expect to find … [actual] opera work rigorous at all”. Prior to her first Met season she had to prepare Aida, Mimì, Marguerite, Euridice, Nedda, Santuzza, Micaëla, Venus “and six other German operas, and some less well known roles in French and Italian opera as well as works in English”. As it turned out, she never appeared in any of these roles, but was rather assigned to smaller parts. She did have more prominent stage opportunities via concert tours and various music festivals. She appears to have made only one commercial record, that for Vocalion (below). 2718. 10” Brown shellac Vocalion 14566 [11219/11221]. OLD FOLKS AT HOME (Foster) / HOME, SWEET HOME (Payne-Bishop).

She next appeared as a ballet dancer at the Radio City Music Hall. This led to the formation of her own dancing school. In 1939 she filled in for an ailing singer in a group with which she was involved as a dance instructor. The result was positive and she was accepted for a vocal scholarship at the Settlement School of Music in Philadelphia, and adjunct to the Curtis School. This led to her debut at the Met in 1942 as the Third Norn in Wagner’s Götterdämmerung , followed by Helmwige in Die Walküre . She had a longer and much more substantial career at Covent Garden, Making her debut in 1946 (I believe) as

Obviously a local opera company of some sort. The chorus could be described as enthusiastic amateurs. There’s no information given on the discs other than Doree’s name and the date. The tenor has a very bright voice and sounds as though he may have had or was aiming for a career. The other singers have their moments. Doree has an attractive top and is by far the most professional of the cast, but she sounds a bit weary in the chest voice. I’m guessing this might have taken place in the New York City area (where she lived and taught until her death in 1971). Perhaps the arts section of a period newspaper might have listed it.

Her teachers included Ginevra Johnstone Bishop, Oscar Saenger, Isidore Luckstone, Felice Kashowska (in Berlin) and Mme. Max Doussett (Paris). She wed Louis Ernest Dreyfus in 1908, her second husband who was apparently more receptive of her work as a “Public Singer” than the first. Her advertisements advised that she was available for “Soiree, Recital, Concert, ”, usually in thematically presented programs. As examples, the Beverly Hills Hotel presented her in Rhymes and Rhythms of the Rommany , while The Santa Monica Bay Woman’s Club featured her in a program of Famous Figures of the Bible in Folk Song, Oratorio, Opera and Cantata (1912). In 1916 her name was featured in a Los Angeles trial of one Frank Bouthwell White on a charge of insanity. He “claimed the distinction of being in reality the Grand Duke of Meklenburg”, the second cousin of Kaiser Wilhelm. He had earlier been arrested “after he brought a sensational suit … against Mrs. Estelle Heartt Dreyfus, a music teacher. … He charged that Mrs. Dreyfus had in her possession a will bequeathing to him a big estate. He also alleged that she was witholding from him deeds, leases and other papers giving him ownership of the Beverly Hills Hotel.” Her reply was, in short, that she never met or knew of him. The result was that White “had been found guilty of insanity by the lunacy commission.” 2857. 10” Yellow acous. Hollywood Record [mat. 306/305]. AIRAM [?] (Elanduz) / LET ME SPEAK TO THEE (Holmes).
