110325-27 bk NormaUS 15/12/2004 12:02pm Page 12 Producer’s Note The transfer of the complete opera was made from the best portions of two 1950s-era British LP pressings, which BELLINI seemed to provide the most open and un-gimmicked sound of several editions I had from which to work. The original master tapes were problematic in the same respects as other early recordings Callas made with the Italian EMI team (I Puritani, Lucia di Lammermoor) in that they contained overload distortion, electronic clicks and thump-like sounds during some of Callas’ louder passages. (These can also be heard on EMI’s own CD transfer Norma of this recording.) Unlike every previous EMI CD reissue of this Norma, however, I have closed the gap of several seconds in the music that occurs at the transition from Track 4 to Track 5 of CD 2, which is supposed to be played without pause (as noted by Dr. Robert E. Seletsky in his article, “Callas at EMI: Remastering and Perception” in IA CAL the Spring 2000 issue of The Opera Quarterly). AR LA Mark Obert-Thorn M S Mark Obert-Thorn Mark Obert-Thorn is one of the world’s most respected transfer artist/engineers. He has worked for a number of 195 ing specialist labels, including Pearl, Biddulph, Romophone and Music & Arts. Three of his transfers have been 4 Record nominated for Gramophone Awards. A pianist by training, his passions are music, history and working on projects. He has found a way to combine all three in the transfer of historical recordings. -

De Senectute Cantorum
DE SENECTUTE CANTORUM By CARL VAN VECHTEN Downloaded from "T" AM not sure," writes Arthur Symons in his admirable essay I on Sarah Bernhardt, "that the best moment to study an artist is not the moment of what is called decadence. The first energy of inspiration is gone; what remains is the method, the mechanism, and it is that which alone one can study, as one http://mq.oxfordjournals.org/ can study the mechanism of the body, not the principle of life itself. What is done mechanically, after the heat of the blood has cooled, and the divine accidents have ceased to happen, is precisely all that was consciously skillful in the performance of an art. To see all this mechanism left bare, as the form of a skeleton is left bare when age thins the flesh upon it, is to learn more easily all that is to be learnt of structure, the art which not art but nature has hitherto concealed with its merciful at University of Birmingham on March 21, 2015 covering." Mr. Symons, of course, had an actress in mind, but his argument can be applied to singers as well, although it is safest to remember that much of the true beauty of the human voice inevitably departs with the youth of its owner. Still, style in singing is not noticeably affected by age and an artist who possesses or who has acquired this quality very often can afford to make lewd gestures at Father Time. If good singing depended upon a full and sensuous tone such artists as Ronconi, Victor Maurel, Max Heinrich, Ludwig Wtillner, and Maurice Renaud would never have had any careers at all. -
