For sale is Herman Klein and the Gramophone (Amadeus) Hardcover Edited and Biographical Sketch by William R. Moran (Author)Large format book with a facsimile reprint of Klein's Gramophone articles in the original size."From 1924 until his death in 1934, Klein contributed a monthly essay, 'The Gramophone and the Singer', to the English periodical The Gramophone. He also wrote book reviews and commends on hundreds of recordings and surveyed the current opera seasons at Covent Garden, giving his impressions of such singers as Melchior, Lehmann, Schumann, Martinelli and Turner, comparing their work with that of their predecessors. It is this unmatched perspective that makes Klein's writings a uniquely valuable resource. His comments on acoustic and early electric recordings that remain available and familiar today become reference points for his descriptions of what legendary singers like Patti and Lind sounded like over a century ago. The present volume includes all his essays and record reviews and reprints his 1923 volume 'The Bel Canto'. It is of the highest importance to collectors of vocal recordings and students of the art of singing."From Klein's comments on early recordings that remain available today, the reader can get a glimpse of what legendary singers such as Patti and Lind sounded like more than a century ago. The essays of Herman Klein that appeared in The Gramophone from 1924 until 1934 are indispensable sources of information on the singers of the Golden Age.Publisher Amadeus; 1st Edition (1990)Language EnglishHardcover 628 pagesDimensions 8.5 x 1.31 x 11 inchesCONDITION: VERY GOOD - First Edition 1990 by Amadeus, large format hardcover w dust jacket, 628 pages.
