CARUSO Enrico 1873 1921
Fine original photograph by the New York photographer Mishkin of Caruso in the role of Raoul in Meyerbeer's Les Huguenots. Signed with an autograph inscription "To Miss May Hiscose" dated 1915
8.5" x 4.5". Double-matted framed and glazed.<br/><br/>From the collection of Marilyn Horne b. 1934. "The winning quality of the sound the tender mezza voce particularly in the early years and his phrasing based on a rare mastery of legato and portamento enabled Caruso to sing the French and Italian lyric repertory as well as lighter operas. In addition his noble incisive declamation his broad generous phrasing and his vigor in dramatic outbursts made him a notable interpreter of Verdi as well as of French grand opéra. In this repertory his performances were characterized by the irresistible erotic appeal of his timbre allied to a temperament as warm and vehement as his voice. His numerous recordings now faithfully remastered on CD not only made him universally famous they also did much to encourage the acceptance of recording as a medium for opera." Rodolfo Celletti and Alan Blyth in Grove Music Online.<br/><br/>A distinguished American mezzo-soprano "Horne had a voice of extraordinary range rich and tangy in timbre with a stentorian chest register and an exciting top. In concert she once achieved the feat of singing in a single programme Rossini arias and Brünnhilde's Immolation Scene proof of her exceptional versatility. Throughout her lengthy career she was an admired recitalist singing lieder mélodies Spanish and American songs with equal aplomb." Alan Blyth in Grove Music Online. unknown books

CARUSO Enrico 1873 1921
Original caricature signed believed to be of the French composer Paul Dukas 1865-1935
Octavo 189 x 149 mm. Dated 1913. Blue pen and wash. <br/><br/>Slightly worn and foxed especially to verso; creased at upper edge and central fold; remnants of adhesive to upper corners of verso.<br/><br/>Together with:<br/>A handsome postcard photograph of Caruso seated stylishly dressed with cigarette and cane in hand. 136 x 84 mm. with the name of the photographer's studio Brogi printed to lower right edge of recto the name and London address of the publisher Breitkopf and Härtel and "Printed in Germany" printed to verso. Slightly browned; remnants of adhesive to verso. "With his original treatment of traditional forms his highly inventive approach to musical drama and his importance as a teacher and writer Paul Dukas occupies a central position in French musical history. Dukas was not only an influence on many French 20th-century composers and others such as Zemlinsky and Berg but also remains important in his own right. His reputation rests on only a small number of compositions notably the Piano Sonata Ariane et Barbe-bleue the ballet La Péri and L'apprenti sorcier. Dukas's influence as a critic from 1892 to 1932 can be compared with Debussy's; his informed opinions reveal great sensitivity to the musical and aesthetic changes that took place during the period."

London: Longmans Green and Co 1902. Sixth Impression. Publishers Cloth. Very Good. Caruso Enrico original self-portrait. 8vo publisher's blue cloth gilt stamped decoration front and spine 673p. 40p. pub list. Unrelated 1965 gift inscription verso ffe. Ownership copy of Tito Ricordi II with his ownership signature upper left corner front fly dated by him 14.01.05 January 14 1905 with an original self-profile in ink by Caruso signed and dated by him 1908. Caruso 1873-1921 the famous Italian-born tenor was also a renowned caricaturist who made sketches of many famous people but often of himself as mementoes to famous personalities or figures in the opera world. This self-portrait was apparently sketched for Tito Ricordi 1865-1933 heir to the historic music publishing company Casa Ricordi founded in 1808 by Tito's grandfather violinist Giovanni Ricordi. The Ricordi company repertoire represented one of the world's most important sources of opera and classical music; early in its history the company purchased the music library of LaScala and published the works of Rossini Bellini Verdi and Puccini. The Ricordis were not only publishers but also impressarios of careers and fortunes in the opera world. This self-portrait presented by Caruso to the Ricordi heir represents an association between the major opera performer of the time and the major arbiter of opera culture and commerce of the period. $1750.

From the collection of Jane Hohfeld Galante 1924 - 2010 pianist and music scholar. <br><br><br />Caruso created roles in many of Cilea's operas but was not among the cast of this production. 'Gloria' was Cilea's final opera opening at La Scala on April 15 1907 conducted by Arturo Toscanini and was a box office disaster closing after only two performances. Perhaps the composer hoped that getting the score into Caruso's capable hands might somehow spark some further interest. Edoardo Sonzogno unknown books
