"Un di Quando le Venerei" & "La Donna e Mobile" on Edison

Post by Valecnik »

I just got this from CLPGS. A couple of excellent reissues I'd probably never be lucky enough to own the originals of.

B14 (Verdi) Un di Quando le Venerei from "La Traviata". Sung by Gustav-Bernal & Scarphy Resky. Released on Edison 2 minute Grand Opera recording B14 in May 1906

B4 (Verdi) La Donna e Mobile from "Rigoletto". Sung by Florencio Constantino. Released on Edison 2 minute Grand Opera B4 in February 1906.

Re-released on one four minute cylinder in September 2013 by the City of London Phonograph and Gramophone Society, (CLPGS) as part of their master series as number MS2 and available for purchase from them.
