[ANPPOM-Lista] selo marstson

Para quem gosta de gravações históricas, o selo de um dos maiores
especialistas em transferências digitais, com um catálogo que inclui,
entre outros, Elsie Houston.

We are tremendously excited to be issuing the first comprehensive CD of the
incomparable Brazilian mezzo-soprano, Elsie Houston. Her vocal production
and interpretations defy description. The intensity of her passion coupled
with the raw energy of her expression make Elsie Houston impossible to
forget once you have heard any one of her records. She is undoubtedly the
most individual of any classically trained singer to have recorded. Having
studied singing with Lilli Lehmann and Ninon Vallin, Houston took her voice
and career in a completely different direction, devoting the rest of her
life to the performance of Brazilian music. Her first recording, made in
Paris in 1927, contained four songs by Heitor Villa-Lobos with the
composer's wife accompanying her at the piano. Also among her first records
was a group of Brazilian folk songs that she collected and published. These
are sung to the accompaniment of guitar, clarinet, and various indigenous
percussion instruments. She made many night club appearances in Paris and
later in the U.S. where exoticism of things South American had become the
rage.

*The unpublished Liberty Music Shop recordings contained here were
originally recorded on lacquer-coated aluminum discs. These unique test
discs were in private hands for many years but have now apparently been
lost. Fortunately, a magnetic tape transfer of the discs was made in the
1970s which we have used for this issue. We hope that the original discs
survive somewhere.

Mr. and Mrs. Laurence C Witten II, the Yale Collection of Historical Sound
recordings, Yale Music Library: Tracks 7 and 8
