Haggin, B. H. | May 25, 1946 issue

add to cart   close window

Columbia has issued a volume with the overture, the popular areas and the concluding duet of "Carmen," sung by Rise Stevens, Nadine Conner, Raoul Jobin, and Robert Weede with the Metropolitan Opera chorus and orchestra under the direction of George Sebastian. Stevens is the featured singer but much of her singing is not enjoyable, with its excessive tremolo. Another operatic recording offers the Bridal Chamber Duet from "Lohengrin," sung by Helen Traubel and Kurt Baum with the New York Philharmonic-Symphony under Rodzinski.
