DIRECT PRESSING, NOT A DUB, copies after 1916 were issued as a DubGreat record of Caruso and New Zealand Soprano Frances Alda in the Trovatore MISERERE.Enrico Caruso & Frances Alda - Trovatore - Miserere (Verdi) - 1910with Metropolitan Opera Chorusrecorded 6 Jan., 1910Caruso’s duet recordings are a marvel to listen to. The great tenor had an uncanny ability to change the color of his voice (without actually changing the voice itself) to match whatever colleague he was singing with. I am hard pressed to think of another artist who had not only the ability to do this, but who possessed the same sense of generosity toward his colleagues to make such a gesture. By doing this, Caruso elevates his singing partner, the music, the drama of the piece and, of course, his own performance by creating the perfect vocal blend. This is just one of the many things that combined to make Enrico Caruso the unparalleled vocal artist he was.Caruso joins New Zealand soprano Frances Alda (1879-1952) for a slightly abridged version of the Miserere from Verdi’s Il Trovatore. Caruso is in marvelous form here. The tenor takes a portamento on the phrase “…è tarda nel venir a chi desia” and again in the second verse on the phrase “…l’amor che posi in te! Non ti scordar…”, winding up on an unbelievably resonant high Ab. Caruso's interpolated top Bb in the second verse is absolutely thrilling…a goosebump raising moment. All in all, this is one of Caruso’s finest recordings.

Quick note on grading: The Grade (Excellent to Poor, I don't give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise."EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET" is close to noiseless, like a vinyl pressing."VERY QUIET" is an above average quiet record for a given pressing."Quiet" is a record that is a great example with some noise. These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment. Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.
