The Golden Age of Singing Volume 1 1900-1910

Celebrating the golden era of operatic singing, this special collection (the first of four volumes), culled from the highly acclaimed Prima Voce series, highlights the singers of the first decade of the 20th century - including Enrico Caruso, Francesco Tamagno, Emma Eames, Adelina Patti, Nellie Melba, Antonina Nezhdanova, and a host of others. Even at its earliest, the gramophone could capture the ring and body of the human voice, particularly of a tenor or baritone, with thrilling immediacy.
