Tancredi Pasero Was Simionato (As Meg) in A

On the night of August15, 1943, La Scala was bombedand gutted. Bravely, the company continued performing,first at Como and Ber- gamo, then back inMilan at the Teatro Lirico. Some of thetheater's leading artists participated: Tancredi Pasero wasBoito's Mefistofele in the first production -in -exile, Schipa was Wertherthat same week, and there were Margherita Carosio, Bechi, andSimionato (as Meg) in a Falstaffwith Mariano Stabile. Then on May 11, 1946, Toscaninireturned to Milan from America, and La Scala returned to its rebuilthome. For his opening program theconduc- tor selected beloved works:the overtures to La Gazza ladra andWilliam Tell, the prayer from Mose (with the veteranPasero and the young Renata Tebaldi, then in her first Scala season),the overture and "Va, pensiero" from Nabucco, the intermezzo andthird act of Manon Lescaut, andthe Mefistofele Prologue with Pasero. Above: the theater on August 16, 1943; left. Toscan in i's return to La Scala; below. Giulietta Simionato as the Italian girl in Algiers Mused Teatrale alla Scala Soon the revitalized Scalatook a new lease on recording life, too,and in the early 1950s began the series ofcomplete recordings with Maria Callas. Many of these were made at La Scala,and some are parallel to what she was singing in the house: Norma, 11 Turcoin Italia, Lucia, La Sonnam- bula, La Gioconda. But other Callas interpretationsat La Scala are only partially recorded, notably her Anna Bolenaand her Lady Macbeth. Curi- ously enough, her splendid Tosca, recorded atLa Scala with her regular partners Giuseppe di Stefano and TitoGobbi and conducted by Victor de Sabata, was unknown to Scala audiencesthen; La Scala's great Tosca dur- ing the 1950s was Tebaldi, who sangunder De Sabata but recorded the opera with other conductors. Naturally the Callas recordings do not tell the wholestory of those years. Simionato was another star of the time,doing for the mezzo-soprano rep- ertory what Callas was doingfor the soprano realm of bel canto.Simio- nato's recording of L'Italiana in Algeri,conducted by Carlo Maria Giulini, is a fairly close reproduction ofthe Scala performances in the springof 1953, with Cesare Valletti asLindoro and Mario Petri as Mustafa.And the brilliant Cimarosa Matrimonio segreto,which inaugurated the Piccola Scala on December 26, 1955, is reflectedin the Angel recording, conducted by Nino Sanzogno (who conductedin the theater) with Luigi Alva, Eu- genia Ratti, and Graziella Sciutti.But for contractual reasons manyim- portant Scala artists of the '50smade their complete opera recordingselse- where. (Tebaldi and Mario del Monaco arethe important cases.) The Fifties recordings made at LaScala were confined to the Italian rep - 85 SEPTEMBi R 1978.

VOCAL 78 Rpm Discs Minimum Bid As Indicated Per Item
VOCAL 78 rpm Discs Minimum bid as indicated per item. Listings “Just about 1-2” should be considered as mint and “Cons. 2” with just the slightest marks. For collectors searching top copies, you’ve come to the right place! The further we get from the time of production (in many cases now 100 years or more), the more difficult it is to find such excellent extant pressings. Some are actually from mint dealer stocks and others the result of having improved copies via dozens of collections purchased over the past fifty years. * * * For those looking for the best sound via modern reproduction, those items marked “late” are usually of high quality shellac, pressed in the 1950-55 period. A number of items in this particular catalogue are excellent pressings from that era. * * * Please keep in mind that the minimum bids are in U.S. Dollars, a benefit to most collectors. * * * “Text label on verso.” For a brief period (1912-14), Victor pressed silver-on-black labels on the reverse sides of some of their single-faced recordings, usually with a translation of the text or similarly related comments. BESSIE ABOTT [s]. Riverdale, NY, 1878-New York, 1919. Following the death of her father which left her family penniless, Bessie and her sister Jessie (born Pickens) formed a vaudeville sister vocal act, accompanying themselves on banjo and guitar. Upon the recommendation of Jean de Reszke, who heard them by chance, Bessie began operatic training with Frida Ashforth. She subsequently studied with de Reszke him- self and appeared with him at the Paris Opéra, making her debut as Gounod’s Juliette.

07 – Spinning the Record
VI. THE STEREO ERA In 1954, a timid and uncertain record industry took the plunge to begin investing heav- ily in stereophonic sound. They were not timid and uncertain because they didn’t know if their system would work – as we have seen, they had already been experimenting with and working the kinks out of stereo sound since 1932 – but because they still weren’t sure how to make a home entertainment system that could play a stereo record. Nevertheless, they all had their various equipment in place, and so that year they began tentatively to make recordings using the new medium. RCA started, gingerly, with “alternate” stereo tapes of monophonic recording sessions. Unfortunately, since they were still uncertain how the results would sound on home audio, they often didn’t mark and/or didn’t file the alternate stereo takes properly. As a result, the stereo versions of Charles Munch’s first stereo recordings – Berlioz’ “Roméo et Juliette” and “Symphonie Fanastique” – disappeared while others, such as Fritz Reiner’s first stereo re- cordings (Strauss’ “Also Sprach Zarathustra” and the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 1 with Ar- thur Rubinstein) disappeared for 20 years. Oddly enough, their prize possession, Toscanini, was not recorded in stereo until his very last NBC Symphony performance, at which he suf- fered a mental lapse while conducting. None of the performances captured on that date were even worth preserving, let alone issuing, and so posterity lost an opportunity to hear his last half-season with NBC in the excellent sound his artistry deserved. Columbia was even less willing to pursue stereo.

Bellini's Norma
Bellini’s Norma - A discographical survey by Ralph Moore There are around 130 recordings of Norma in the catalogue of which only ten were made in the studio. The penultimate version of those was made as long as thirty-five years ago, then, after a long gap, Cecilia Bartoli made a new recording between 2011 and 2013 which is really hors concours for reasons which I elaborate in my review below. The comparative scarcity of studio accounts is partially explained by the difficulty of casting the eponymous role, which epitomises bel canto style yet also lends itself to verismo interpretation, requiring a vocalist of supreme ability and versatility. Its challenges have thus been essayed by the greatest sopranos in history, beginning with Giuditta Pasta, who created the role of Norma in 1831. Subsequent famous exponents include Maria Malibran, Jenny Lind and Lilli Lehmann in the nineteenth century, through to Claudia Muzio, Rosa Ponselle and Gina Cigna in the first part of the twentieth. Maria Callas, then Joan Sutherland, dominated the role post-war; both performed it frequently and each made two bench-mark studio recordings. Callas in particular is to this day identified with Norma alongside Tosca; she performed it on stage over eighty times and her interpretation casts a long shadow over. Artists since, such as Gencer, Caballé, Scotto, Sills, and, more recently, Sondra Radvanovsky have had success with it, but none has really challenged the supremacy of Callas and Sutherland. Now that the age of expensive studio opera recordings is largely over in favour of recording live or concert performances, and given that there seemed to be little commercial or artistic rationale for producing another recording to challenge those already in the catalogue, the appearance of the new Bartoli recording was a surprise, but it sought to justify its existence via the claim that it authentically reinstates the integrity of Bellini’s original concept in matters such as voice categories, ornamentation and instrumentation.

Verdi's Rigoletto
Verdi’s Rigoletto - A discographical conspectus by Ralph Moore It is hard if not impossible, to make a representative survey of recordings of Rigoletto, given that there are 200 in the catalogue; I can only compromise by compiling a somewhat arbitrary list comprising of a selection of the best-known and those which appeal to me. For a start, there are thirty or so studio recordings in Italian; I begin with one made in 1927 and 1930, as those made earlier than that are really only for the specialist. I then consider eighteen of the studio versions made since that one. I have not reviewed minor recordings or those which in my estimation do not reach the requisite standard; I freely admit that I cannot countenance those by Sinopoli in 1984, Chailly in 1988, Rahbari in 1991 or Rizzi in 1993 for a combination of reasons, including an aversion to certain singers – for example Gruberova’s shrill squeak of a soprano and what I hear as the bleat in Bruson’s baritone and the forced wobble in Nucci’s – and the existence of a better, earlier version by the same artists (as with the Rudel recording with Milnes, Kraus and Sills caught too late) or lacklustre singing in general from artists of insufficient calibre (Rahbari and Rizzi). Nor can I endorse Dmitri Hvorostovsky’s final recording; whether it was as a result of his sad, terminal illness or the vocal decline which had already set in I cannot say, but it does the memory of him in his prime no favours and he is in any case indifferently partnered.
