Single issue Columbia 12" 78 rpm from complete recordingCondition: EXCELLENT close to PRISTINE, plays very quiet faintest hissA SUPERB COPY Mercedes Capsir (1897 - 1969) Biographical notes: Curiously, Mercedes Capsir was born in the same house where, 14 years earlier, Maria Barrientos had been born. She studied in Barcelona and Italy, making her debut as Gilda in 1914 at the Teatro Principal in Gerona. She sang in Spain and Portugal until 1918 and appeared at the Teatro Col=n in 1916. Her most important roles were Lucia, OphTlie, Rosina, Gilda and Violetta. In 1919 she began her Italian career at Bologna and Florence, frequently appearing at Naples, Turin and Rome until 1943. She sang at La Scala from 1924 - 1934, taking also part in GiordanoÆs Il Re (1929), appearing opposite Chaliapin, Galeffi, Lauri-Volpi and Pinza among others. She often returned to Spain. She was heard in Berlin in 1924, at Covent Garden in 1926 and at the Vienna State Opera in 1935. Her last appearance took place in 1949 at Barcelona. Comment: She was Rosina on a complete recording of Il Barbiere di Siviglia, featuring the unforgettable Riccardo Stracciari as Figaro. She sings the famous aria of Rosina with highly personal cadenzas and rich embellishments. Note her omission of lower sounds in favor of vocal extension towards her quite remarkable upper register.

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.
