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 slight marks. For collectors searching top copies, you’ve come to the right place! The further we get from the era 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. Also featured are many “Z” shellac Victors, their best quality surface material (later 1930s). * * * 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 featuring translations 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 recommend- dation of Jean de Reszke, who heard them by chance, Bessie began operatic training with Frida Ashforth. She subsequently studied with de Reszke himself and appeared with him at the Paris Opéra, making her debut as Gounod’s Juliette. She also sang the Forest Bird in Wagner’s Siegfried with de Reszke in the title role. Despite various biographical references to the contrary, Abott seems not to have studied with Marchesi. She appeared at the Met during the seasons of 1906-08, and left, dissatisfied with her roles assigned for the next season. She then began arrangements with Mascagni for a new opera in which she would star and tour. The work turned out to be Isabeau. Mascagni, however, evolved other ideas as to what would be done with the opera when it was completed, a decision which pro- duced lawsuits on both sides. After touring with her own opera company and appearing in operetta as well, Abott married sculptor T. Waldo Story (brother of Emma Eames’’ first husband, artist Julian Story) in 1912 and subsequently spent much time in Italy, where they had an estate. She evidently met Puccini during this period, as she claimed the composer presented her with one of her proudest possessions, a Pomeranian puppy.

Codogno 1871- Milan 1934. Born Santo Giuseppe Bertini, he worked in the family shop until 1897, when he began vocal studies in Milan with Marziani and subsequently with Blasco and Rossi. He made his debut in Lodi, 1899, as the Duke in Rigoletto but decided to study further. Two years later he made a second debut at the Municipale in Piacenza as Edgardo in Lucia with Isabella Svicher and Giuseppe Pacini. This time he had great success. He appeared throughout Italy in houses such as the dal Verme in Milano, the Teatro Comunale in Bologna and the Teatro Regio in Torino. Outside of Italy he made guest appearances at the Madrid Teatro Reale and the Teatro Zizinia in Alexandria, Egypt. His last appearance traced was Cavaradossi, 1917, at the Milan dal Verme. – Roberto Marcocci 2269. 10” Blk. GP ’08 Vr 52417 [7150b]. LUCREZIA BORGIA: Di pescatore ignobile (Donizetti).

Having studied voice with Edmond Duvernoy, Giraudet and Paul Vidal, as well as with her mother (Emmy Ackté, a soprano with the Helsinki Opera), Ackté made her debut at the Paris Opéra, 1897, as Marguerite in Gounod’s Faust. Her subsequent career included all the major European operatic centers and the Metropolitan Opera (1903-05). In 1910, she was England’s first Salome (and one of the few sopranos at the time to do the “Dance of the Seven Veils” herself). Her repertoire was diverse, including Micaela in Carmen, Nedda (which she sang in the Paris Grand Opera premiere of Pagliacci in 1902) and Brünnhilde in Wagner’s Siegfried, among other Wagnerian heroines. 3804. 11” Red Odeon 36869-2/39216 [XPR-1-1/XPh680-2].

St. Chinian, France, 1858-Cagnes-sur-Mer, France, 1931. He studied at the Toulouse Conservatoire and then in Paris. 1890 marked his Paris Opèra debut as Edgardo to Nellie Melba’s Lucia, the soprano appearing in Paris for the first time the same evening. He remained a leading tenor of that institution for twenty years, also appearing in various other French houses as well as in Brussels, and at London’s Covent Garden. In 1911 he moved to the United States where he was heard in operas in New Orleans, San Francisco, and in Havana. According to one source, Affre became director of the French Opera House in New Orleans in 1913 when it came under the ownership of Tulane University, and remained there until the house burned down in 1919. He then retired to a villa on the Côte d’Azur. 9303. 11” Brown Odeon 60308/56094 [XP3330/XP3532].

Born of an Italian-French family, Albani sang in the French provinces before coming to the U.S. in 1907. His debut was with the Manhattan Opera as Manrico in Il Trovatore. After one repetition, Albani claimed illness, necessitating the postpone- ment of a production of Ernani in which he was to star. The Manhattan’s Impresario, Oscar Hammerstein, discovered that Albani had not only recovered but was appearing in Boston with the San Carlo Opera in what must have been his favorite work, Il Trovatore. Hammerstein promptly sued and a constable was dispatched to arrest the tenor, then at work on stage. The performance was allowed to continue, providing that the officer might follow the Pavarotti sized tenor about until the opera ended. Whenever the constable appeared from behind a tree or some other stage prop, he was roundly hissed by the audience. This ended Albani’s American career, but he was more successful in Europe, appearing at the Paris Opéra and the Costanzi in Rome, among other theaters, in, again, Il Trovatore and Aida, among other operas. There seems to be no sign of him after World War I. 3544. 12” Red GP ’06 Vr 75096. FORZA DEL DESTINO: O tu che segno agli’ angeli (Verdi). Few lt. mks., cons. 2. $15.00. ANNA MARIA ALBERGETTI [s].

  • Luciano Pavarotti Is Dead at 71
    September 6, 2007 Luciano Pavarotti Is Dead at 71 By BERNARD HOLLAND Luciano Pavarotti, the Italian singer whose ringing, pristine sound set a standard for operatic tenors of the postwar era, died Thursday at his home near Modena, in northern Italy. He was 71. His death was announced by his manager, Terri Robson. The cause was pancreatic cancer. In July 2006 he underwent surgery for the cancer in New York, and he had made no public appearances since then. He was hospitalized again this summer and released on Aug. 25. Like Enrico Caruso and Jenny Lind before him, Mr. Pavarotti extended his presence far beyond the limits of Italian opera. He became a titan of pop culture. Millions saw him on television and found in his expansive personality, childlike charm and generous figure a link to an art form with which many had only a glancing familiarity. Early in his career and into the 1970s he devoted himself with single- mindedness to his serious opera and recital career, quickly establishing his rich sound as the great male operatic voice of his generation — the “King of the High Cs,” as his popular nickname had it. By the 1980s he expanded his franchise exponentially with the Three Tenors projects, in which he shared the stage with Plácido Domingo and José Carreras, first in concerts associated with the World Cup and later in world tours. Most critics agreed that it was Mr. Pavarotti’s charisma that made the collaboration such a success. The Three Tenors phenomenon only broadened his already huge audience and sold millions of recordings and videos.

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).

  • Figura 1. Teatri Di Venezia, Venezia Venezia 1868: L’Anno Di Ca’ Foscari a Cura Di Nico Stringa E Stefania Portinari
    Figura 1. Teatri di Venezia, Venezia Venezia 1868: l’anno di Ca’ Foscari a cura di Nico Stringa e Stefania Portinari I teatri a Venezia nel 1868 Maria Ida Biggi (Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia, Italia) Abstract In 1868 the theatrical context in Venice was affected by local abut also statal economic situation, due by the development of the new Italian State, formed after the Peace of Vienna that, signed on 23 October 1866, marked the end of the Third War of Independ- ence and the annexation of Venice to the unitary state. Venice therefore became less important for theatrical production, and the city was no longer among the capitals of theatre and music, as it could have been considered until in the first half of 19th century. A new trend throughout Europe was moreover the ‘grand opera’, while in Venice the dominant show was still the traditional musical opera, in addition to opera and ‘opera buffa’, created by great Italian composers. The theatres active in 1868 in the city are La Fenice, Teatro San Benedetto then called Rossini, Teatro Apollo, Teatro Malibran and Teatro San Samuele. Through the reviews of the Gazzetta di Venezia and documents such as sketches of the scene made by famous set designers, that interesting moment is reconstructed. Keywords Theatres. Venice. 1868.

    Biella, UPBeduca 15 giugno 2016 Alberto Galazzo Giovanna Astrua (1720-1756) Si perfeziona nel canto a Milano sotto la direzione di Giuseppe Ferdinando Brivio. Il suo esordio è a Torino nel 1737, in alcune repliche di Olimpiade composta dal suo maestro e del Demetrio di Geminiano Giacomelli, cui seguono nel 1738, sempre con parti di secondo piano, Demofoonte ancora di Brivio e La Clemenza di Tito di Giuseppe Arena. Il primo impegno importante della sua carriera è nel Ciro riconosciuto di Leonardo Leo su libretto di Pietro Metastasio. In seguito canta in alcuni dei principali teatri italiani; tra questi al Teatro San Samuele di Venezia dove, nel 1739, è protagonista di Creusa, libretto di Urbano Rizzi e musica di Pietro Leone Cardena. L'anno successivo è al Teatro Solerio di Alessandria con il Bajazet di Giovanni Colombi (libretto di Agostino Piovene). La serata registra la presenza di Carlo Emanuele III di Savoia che già aveva ascoltato la Astrua nella Olimpiade di Brivio. Dal 1741 al 1747 è stabilmente al Teatro San Carlo di Napoli dove partecipa come primadonna a tre/quattro allestimenti l'anno: porta in scena lavori di Leonardo Leo, Leonardo Vinci, Domenico Natale Sarro, Johann Adolph Hasse, Gennaro Manna, Egidio Romualdo Duni, Giuseppe de Majo nonché nel 1746 Ipermestra di Christoph Willibald Gluck. A Napoli lavora sovente in copia con Gaetano Majorano detto il Caffarelli. Alla Biblioteca del Conservatorio San Pietro a Majella di Napoli sono conservati due manoscritti. Di entrambi i duetti la Astrua è interprete in coppia con Caffarelli. Il primo è di Leonardo Leo: si tratta del Duetto a' due Canti con Violini dal titolo Ne' giorni tuoi felici tratto dall'opera Olimpiade, per un organico di due soprani, violino primo e secondo, viola e basso continuo.

  • Michał Piotr Mrozowicki Uniwersytet Gdański ————
    michał piotr mrozowicki uniwersytet gdański ———— O HISTORII PARYSKICH INSCENIZACJI PIERŚCIENIA NIBELUNGA (1893–1933) ules Pasdeloup był wielkim nieobecnym na wagnerowskim festiwalu w Bayreuth J w sierpniu 1876 r., podczas którego po raz pierwszy w całości wykonano tetra- logię Pierścień Nibelunga. Ten niestrudzony propagator muzyki Ryszarda Wagnera w Paryżu uznał za stosowne zbojkotować to wielkie wydarzenie z powodu gallofo- bicznej „twórczości” niemieckiego kompozytora z okresu wojny francusko-pruskiej lat 1870–71. Nie widział jednak nic niestosownego w tym, by zaledwie dwa miesiące po zakończeniu festiwalu, 29 X 1876 r., włączyć do programu swego koncertu w Cyr- ku Zimowym Marsz żałobny na śmierć Zygfryda z III aktu Zmierzchu bogów. Był to pierwszy fragment Pierścienia Nibelunga wykonany w Paryżu. I tak oto paryska prezentacja wagnerowskiej Tetralogii zaczęła się od samego niemal końca. Dodajmy, że zaczęła się nie bez przeszkód. Podobnie jak piętnaście lat wcześniej na premierze Tannhäusera, wrogo do Wagnera nastawiona część publiczności pojawiła się w sali koncertowej uzbrojona w gwizdki. Użyła ich, gdy Jules Pasdeloup i jego muzycy zaczęli wykonywać czwartą, przedostatnią pozycję programu, wagnerowski marsz ża- łobny. Wysłuchanie utworu momentami stawało się niemożliwe, co wzburzyło nawet nienależącego do entuzjastów Wagnera dziennikarza Le Figaro Alberta Wolffa, który skrytykował zachowanie publiczności w artykule „Le scandale d’hier” (Wczorajszy skandal) 1, opublikowanym na pierwszej stronie dziennika. Po tym burzliwym popołudniu Jules Pasdeloup na niemal trzy lata zawiesił swo- ją misję zaznajamiania paryżan z utworami Wagnera. W 1879 r. podjął ją jednak na nowo, a do wykonywania kolejnych fragmentów Pierścienia Nibelunga powrócił 19 XII 1880 r., włączając do swego koncertu Pożegnanie Wotana i Czar ognia, w wy- konaniu Octave’a Labisa.
