The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Two very well recorded duets from Verdi's Il Travatore by Louise Homer and Giovanni Martenelli. For opera lovers this is nice to hear. Both voices captured in electrically recorded sound rather than the tinny acoustic sound that normally captured their voices. I found them very nice to hear.
