CRITIC REVIEWS:
“This issue displays all the usual virtues of the VRCS issues: Superlative notes and photographs, full discographical details, very high production values and state of the art transfers by Seth Winner. As always, highly recommended.”
- Paul Steinson, THE RECORD COLLECTOR, 2020
“And so we come to this latest release from the Vocal Record Collectors' Society. It contains precisely the kind of rarified content in one respect or another that collectors of historical singers of opera and song have spent hours delighting - and not just ourselves, but others who have fallen into our clutches….
This disc presents the same kind of experience one would expect upon visiting a knowledgeable collector who, by chance, is also an expert digital editor. Add in biographies of the singers and record information (dates, side length, matrix and catalog numbers, etc), and you have all the makings of a fine collectors' get together….
Seth Winner does a superior job with the digital transfers. If you aren't aware of the VRCS's annual series but enjoy sampling the rarer side of vintage operatic and song transfers from extensive collections, you should seriously consider this.”
