Miss Paikin was a pupil of Marie Brema in England and is described in articles dating from 1925 and 1929 as a protégé of Luisa Tetrazzini, whom she occasionally replaced in concerts whenever the great diva was indisposed. Paikin was popular in England in the 1920s and ‘30s. In the later 1930s she appeared on several U.S. radio broadcasts and sang with the Carl Rosa Opera Company in England in 1940. She ap- pears to have wed Joseph Bernham in New York sometime in the earlier 1940s and settled in New York City. Two brothers were also New York residents, one a noted art dealer who died in 1951. She appears not to have continued her career following the war. Paikin recorded acousticcally for Aeolian-Vocalion and electrically for HMV. 4112. 12” Pink acous. Eng. Vocalion A-0236 [03992/03993X].

Judging from remarks by colleagues who heard him (as quoted in the 1972 article on Paoli by Jesus M. López in The Record Collector, Vol. XXII, Nos. 1-2), Paoli’s must have been one of the most remarkable dramatic tenor voices of his era: “Paoli was one of the greatest dramatic tenors in the world of his time – and of this time, too.” (Lazaro). “Paoli was one of the greatest singing actors I have ever seen in my life.” (Piccaluga). [After “O Paradiso” in l’Africana] “sounded the most stupendous ovation I have heard in my fifty years [as a chorister] at La Scala” [Enrico Neni]. “I sang with Paoli several times. His high notes sounded so loud that to sing with him you had to know the music well, as otherwise you had no chance to hear the orchestra.” [Manfredo Polverosi]. Reported soprano Elvira de Hidalgo, “Let me tell you that during my long life I have not heard a better Otello than his and believe me I have heard a lot of Otellos”. 1759. 10” Red Vr 91080 [10522b].

On his 1922 belated debut performance as Otello at the Academy of Music, the press reported, “Stentorian top notes from the throat of Antonio Paoli provoked tumultuous excitement”. Just about 1-2. $15.00. 192 VOCAL 78 rpm Discs 2974. 12” White lbl. vinyl HMV 052297 [1841½c]. LE CID: Preghiera (Massenet). Just about 1-2. $30.00. ISABELLA PAOLI [s]. Firenze, 1863?–Bologna, 1903. Paoli began her career in 1878 in operetta. Blessed with both beauty and vocal talent, she quickly became a great success. She subsequently appeared in opera, an early performance having been in Valencia, 1889, as Elsa in Lohengrin. Heard in a number of Italian theaters, including the Politeama in Genoa, the Dal Verme in Milano, and the Mercadante in Naples, Paoli gained considerable attention, both for her on stage performances and her prima donna behavior with related scandals and eccentricities. She died as a result of complications following surgery while engaged to sing Gioconda at the Duse Theater in Bologna. Judging from her records, she was one of the great dramatic sopranos of her era. Her four extremely rare records (four Zonophones, one issued with two different takes) were recorded the year of her death. How fascinating it is that we are able to recall through records a voice stilled for over 110 years! 2386. 10” Blk. Disco Zonofono X-1840. TOSCA: Vissi d’arte (Puccini). Lovely singing. One small bump near start, small group of LSSs, rubbs. Somewhat noisy the first inch or so but only a very few lt. grey traces. Gen. 4. $500.00. GRAZIELLA PARETO [s]. Barcelona, 1889-Rome, 1973. Making her debut at the age of sixteen in Barcelona as Micaela in Carmen, Pareto gained quick success.

  • 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.

In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.

  • Kadence Eleonory Z Ehrenbergů1 Milan Pospíšil
    MUSICALIA 1–2 / 2012, 43–55 Kadence Eleonory z Ehrenbergů1 MILAN POSPÍŠIL ěvecký pedagog a skladatel František Pivoda (1824–1898) se v závěru Nové nauky Pzpěvu zabývá operními kadencemi. Rozlišuje jejich různé druhy a vysvětluje své pojetí vzorových kadencí, jež v notované podobě měly sloužit k praktickému použití.2 Kadencím pak věnoval ještě obsáhlejší pojednání, které vydal samostatně česky a německy.3 Pedagogické využití nejen vlastních instruktivních kompozic, ale také úryvků z oper a jejich zpěvních variant pocházejících z živé interpretační tradice zařazuje Pivodovu kon- cepci k pěveckým školám, obsahujícím jak návody k provádění ozdobného zpěvu a ka- dencí, tak varianty kadencí, představovaným hlavně autory jako Manuel García, Mathilde Marchesi a Luigi Ricci.4 Recepce Pivodových prací se ovšem nemůže srovnávat se škola- mi Garcíi a Marchesiové, rozšířenými v překladech po celém světě, ani s dodnes užívanou a stále vydávanou antologií Ricciho. Nová nauka zpěvu vycházela na pokračování od roku 1879, poslední sešit obsahující kapitolu o kadencích je z roku 1883. Označení Eleonory z Ehrenbergů v separátním pojednání jako „bývalá výtečná virtuosní pěvkyně české ope- ry“5 zřejmě reflektuje její odchod z Národního divadla, takže tento nedatovaný spis vyšel 1) Studie vznikla za finanční podpory Ministerstva kultury ČR v rámci institucionálního financování dlouhodo- bého koncepčního rozvoje výzkumné organizace Národní muzeum (DKRVO).

    VOCAL 78 rpm Discs FRANZ (FRANTISEK) PÁCAL [t]. Leitomischi, Austria, 1865-Nepomuk, Czechoslo- vakia, 1938. First an orchestral violinist, Pácal then studied voice with Gustav Walter in Vienna and sang as a chorister in Cologne, Bremen and Graz. In 1895 he became a member of the Vienna Hofoper and had a great success there in 1897 singing the small role of the Fisherman in Rossini’s William Tell. He then was promoted to leading roles and remained in Vienna through 1905. Unfor- tunately he and the Opera’s director, Gustav Mahler, didn’t get along, despite Pacal having instructed his son to kiss Mahler’s hand in public (behavior Mahler considered obsequious). Pacal stated that Mahler ruined his career, calling him “talentless” and “humiliating me in front of all the Opera personnel.” We don’t know what happened to invoke Mahler’s wrath but we do know that Pácal sent Mahler a letter in 1906, unsuccessfully begging for another chance. Leaving Vienna, Pácal then sang with the Prague National Opera, in Riga and finally in Posen. His rare records demonstate a fine voice with considerable ring in the upper register. -Internet sources 1858. 10” Blk. Wien G&T 43832 [891x-Do-2z]. FRÜHLINGSZEIT (Becker).

  • Operetta After the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen a Dissertation
    Operetta after the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Elaine Tennant Spring 2013 © 2013 Ulrike Petersen All Rights Reserved Abstract Operetta after the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair This thesis discusses the political, social, and cultural impact of operetta in Vienna after the collapse of the Habsburg Empire. As an alternative to the prevailing literature, which has approached this form of musical theater mostly through broad surveys and detailed studies of a handful of well‐known masterpieces, my dissertation presents a montage of loosely connected, previously unconsidered case studies. Each chapter examines one or two highly significant, but radically unfamiliar, moments in the history of operetta during Austria’s five successive political eras in the first half of the twentieth century. Exploring operetta’s importance for the image of Vienna, these vignettes aim to supply new glimpses not only of a seemingly obsolete art form but also of the urban and cultural life of which it was a part. My stories evolve around the following works: Der Millionenonkel (1913), Austria’s first feature‐length motion picture, a collage of the most successful stage roles of a celebrated
