La Rosa Parodi. Just about 1-2. $35.00. BERNARDO OLSHANSKY [b]. Russia, 1885-Union City, NJ, 25 Jan. 1933. Olshansky left Russia around 1905 as a result of political persecution. He studied in New York City with Giacomo Ginsberg (name changed later to Giacomo Bourg) and subsequently with Louis Simions (?) and made his debut in Monza (Italy) in 1910 as Rigoletto. He appears to subsequently having sung in Torino, 1911, although there is some confusion here. A result of a recital in Boston upon his return (likely in 1910 but possibly 1911) was his being engaged by the Boston Opera for the 1911 season and being sent by a wealthy patroness to Paris for preliminary studies with André Caplet, the noted composer and a conductor with the Boston Opera. Olshansky appeared in Boston in about a dozen roles for two seasons (these including the Jailer in Tosca, Yakuside in Madama Butterfly and Valentin in Faust) and performed in a similar capacity with the Montreal Opera around the same time. After that experience, he seems to have left opera in favor of the recital stage and was heard in New York as a concert singer on a fairly regular basis, mainly at Aeolian and Town Halls. He also appeared successfully in various concert venues throughout the country. The last traced such program was at Town Hall, March 25, 1932.
