    Album Description

    The Complete Caruso: Volumes 1 - 12

    The Italian tenor Enrico Caruso holds a unique place in musical history, as the first operatic singer whose recordings sold in millions, and who created an international reputation on the strength of these. Caruso's robust tone and musical sincerity made him both an ideal stage and recording artist, whose voice the primitive acoustic recording technology of the early twentieth century was able to reproduce with startling fidelity. The Naxos Historical Caruso edition constitutes the complete cycle of all Caruso's recordings issued in chronological order. In addition, the transfers have been immaculately undertaken by top sound engineer Ward Marston, unrivalled for his knowledge of the specialized world of acoustic opera recordings, and his rare ability to retrieve all of the music lying in the grooves of the original recordings. Naxos Historical's incredible price (12 CD'S FOR THE PRICE OF 10) puts this unique legacy of great singing within the reach of all music-lovers. This! complete cycle of recordings represents a major document in the history of sound recording, and one which no collector and enthusiast of great singing will wish to be without. "There is no series of vocal records that have a greater documentary value, that meant more to the development of the phonograph record, or that are as consistently capable of providing pleasure to lovers of great singing. ...One of the most significant recording industry events of the decade." Fanfare

    This may not be easy to get in the USA for very long.....don't miss it.

    5 out of 5 stars Essential edition for opera lovers.......2005-02-01

    This set gives you the opportunity to follow the entire recording career of one of the greatest singers in Operatic History. Enrico Caruso was the first superstar of the 20th century -- and this without the benefit of mass media. His person and his records were his greatest publicity.

    The set begins with Caruso's Italian made recordings. They show a great raw talent. The artistry is lacking with many sobs, over acting and mistaken cues. The 1902 and 1903 clearly show a tenor with a lot to learn. But learn it he did. His 1904 sessions show a mature artist on par with any heard since. His voice matures before your very ears and by 1910, you wonder if you will ever listen to any other tenor the same way again.

    The engineering used for this set is wonderful. There is no attempt at all to use the soundstream process of computer sound enhancement as heard on the RCA issued sets. These are near perfect mint conditioned discs copied by engineer extraordinary Ward Marston. They sound like natural 78s, they way Caruso himself must have heard the playbacks at the (RCA) Victor studios.

    Also included are outtakes and extra takes. There is a "Celeste Aida" from 1908, complete with a broken high note, previously released by RCA in a 1973 set commemorating the tenor's centenary birthday. But there are new treasures here as well, including extra takes of two of Caruso's greatest recordings, the Italian song "L'Alba separa dalla l'uce ombra" and an aria from Rubinestine's Nerone. Listening to them, one wonders what Caruso could have possible thought inadquate in those long lost altenative takes.

    Finally, there is the simple joy of hearing so many things so well sung. Caruso was the pinnacle of the tenor art. He can be compared to no other single tenor since ... he has the brilliant ring of Bjorling, the passion of Gigli, the beauty of Gedda, the youthful enthusiasm of Lanza, the warm tonal quality of Tucker, the pure strength of Corelli, the charasma of Pavarotti and the artestry of Domingo.

    Whether you are an opera fan, a voice fan or just a music lover. This set is worth every penny.

    5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Recordings.......2002-01-26

    Despite what anyone else says, the Naxos transfers and reissues of Caruso's complete recordings are wonderful! They seem to have taken GREAT care to ensure only the finest quality, and after purchasing vols 1 and 2 in this set, I can say that they do. And (unlike the other reissues by Pearl and RCA) the price is unbeatable! I highly suggest that any Caruso fan or vintage record buff pick up a set of these CDs.

    Album Description

    When complete the Naxos Historical Caruso edition will constitute the complete cycle of all Caruso's recordings issued in chronological order, thus enabling the artistic development of this great artist to be followed in detail. In 1919, shortly after the period covered by this CD, Caruso was to celebrate his twenty-fifth year, yet in these recordings there is no sign of strain or wear on the voice at all, only the brilliant sounds that made Caruso world-famous and the first real operatic star of the gramophone.

    5 out of 5 stars Caruso for a song........2004-03-15

    In the liner notes provided with this CD, you will read that opera patrons during the years these recordings were made sometimes paid the equivalent of $1,000 to attend a Caruso performance. Modern marketing, Naxos, and restoration engineer Ward Marston allow us to hear 77 minutes of Caruso recordings for merely a fraction of this cost.

    Doyen of reviewers J Scott Morrison has already given Volume 10 of the Naxos Complete Recordings of Enrico Caruso series a rave review, so I shall add only a few comments. Regarding track identification: the composer Faure to whom Track 1 is attributed is not Gabriel but the less well-known French composer J B Faure (1830-1914). The Tchaikovsky item in Track 4 is his Op 6, No 5. The starry quartet and sextet items (2 takes of each) are the ones to go for in the Caruso discography. They are (almost) debut recordings for his compatriot Amelita Galli-Curci, one of the few singers whose voice, like Caruso's, was wonderfully well caught by the acoustic recording process.

    5 out of 5 stars Number Ten and Counting; And Simply the Best Caruso on CD.......2003-11-08

    Naxos, praise be, is issuing all of Caruso's known recordings in the order in which they were recorded. In this, the tenth of the series, we have reached the era which, for some of us, is the ne plus ultra as regards Caruso's depth of musicianship and richness of voice, 1916 to early 1917. Not long afterward his health began to ebb. But in this time period his tenor voice was at its most baritonal, his breath control inhuman, and his musicianship scrubbed of it earlier vulgarity. I know there are those who revel in the latter, but I'm not one of them. We also get several alternate takes that were not issued on 78 at the time of their recording--one of the opening of the Quartet from 'Rigoletto' that only goes to the point where the mezzo enters, another of the complete Lucia 'Sextet' with Amelita Calli-Curci, Giuseppe de Luca and Marcel Journet among others.

    Of special interest here are the selections sung in French--with excellent diction, it must be said--Tchaikovsky's 'Pourquoi?,' and Lensky's aria from 'Eugène Onegin' (gorgeous!), as well as Godard's 'Chanson de Juin,' Saint-Saëns's 'Vois ma misère, hélas' from 'Samson et Dalila.' Best of all are the two arias from Bizet's 'Pearl Fishers': 'De mon amie, fleur endormie,' and especially an absolutely stunning 'Je crois entendre encore.'

    Other highlights: the full Quartet from 'Rigoletto' with Galli-Curci, Flora Perini, and de Luca; 'M'appari' from Flotow's 'Martha' with a final B-flat that will knock your socks off (and SO much better than the version he recorded more than ten years earlier).

    Fauré's 'Sancta Maria' sounds Italian, I must say. 'Santa Lucia' is just a tad hokey. But Caruso's own 'Tiempo antico' is delightful. Andrea Chenier's 'Come un bel di di maggio' is sung with delicacy, grace and ardor. There are a couple takes of a ditty ('L'alba separa dall luce l'ombra') by Tosti and another couple of popular songs by Castaldon and De Crescenzo.

    Finally, two takes of an aria I'd never heard before from Anton Rubinstein's 'Nerone,' 'Ah! lumière du jour.' Caruso's trumpet-like high notes are really something here.

    I've acquired all but two of the previous Caruso CDs on Naxos. I've also had earlier transfers of some of the material and I have to say that Naxos and their miracle man, Ward Marston, are doing an amazing job of presenting cleaned-up yet true-sounding transfers. Evviva!

    5 out of 5 stars Caruso--All of the Legend in Great Sound.......2004-08-04

    I've been scratching my head over Caruso re-issues over the past 30 years, and frankly didn't understand why the world needed another complete set of the great tenor's recordings. But Naxos hired the great Ward Marsden to re-master this set, which now comes to a triumphant conclusion with Volume 12. The price is astoundingly good in the bargain, with excellent liner notes on each issue. All the CDs are generously filled.

    Caruso's robust, but never out-sized singing is a revelation. The voice has range, color, depth, size, spin, and superbly conveys pathos, comedy, elegance, power, and intimacy. Beginning in 1904 up through 1920, we get sixteen years of great singing. The voice got darker, but it certainly never lost its ability to astonish and console. There simply is no decline of vocal powers throughout the set. Even singing "Vecchia zimarra," Colline's coat aria from Puccin's LA BOHEME, Caruso is a revelation. He sang this bass aria for a colleague in vocal distress one evening at the Metropolitan Opera. Nobody knew it until later. Caruso sings very convincingly in the bass range.

    This entire sets belongs in the collection of any serious vocal lover. He was a people's tenor, but one with a lot of class. He had the common touch, which means he appealed to everyone. More than 80 years later, Caruso's singing never ceases to amaze and thrill listeners. Gigli and Pavarotti both enjoyed bestselling recording careers and Pavarotti certainly has enjoyed as big a career in the modern era, but Caruso was still a bigger star in his time. Deservedly so, as these great records, both classical and popular, will attest.

    5 out of 5 stars The final recording sessions........2004-07-21

    Death intervened before the 47-year-old Enrico Caruso could continue to record beyond these sessions from 1919 and 1920. Six recording sessions yielded 17 items. They are all included here, together with an item from Caruso?s very first recording session transferred from a better copy than was used in Volume 1 of the Naxos Caruso series.

    I read in the accompanying notes that Caruso?s vocal powers were in serious decline by the time these last recordings were made and that the Victor recording processes were less favorable to his voice during his last years. To my ears, neither of these assessments seems right. Listen, for example to Tracks 10 and 11, from September 1919. Never has a voice leapt out of loudspeakers with such power! True, it is a darker voice than it once was, but the effulgence of the voice and the confidence of the presentation is astounding, and the recording process seems to capture it all vividly.

    A couple of curiosities are included in this 69 minute CD: a brass band rendition of a march written by Caruso, and a novelty vocal, mercifully not too long, called ?My Cousin Caruso? presented by Billy Murray.

    5 out of 5 stars Caruso, aged 45........2004-02-10

    Here is 67 minutes of Caruso, as recorded in 1918 and 1919. The voice is wondrously powerful. Not only is he represented at his best here but colleagues who make a strong impression also join him. The great baritone Giuseppe de Luca, glorious especially in his upper register, features in two duets, including a rarely recorded item from "La Forza del Destino", an opera Caruso had recently added to his repertoire. Luise Homer and Marcel Journet join Caruso in another rarely recorded item, a trio from "Samson et Dalila". Emilio de Gorgoza is the baritone heard in the opening track with Caruso in a duet he recorded ten years later with Tito Schipa.

    Italians are rarely successful when attempting to sing in English. Although he spent more time in the USA than elsewhere during these years, Caruso's English, as heard in the patriotic song "Over There", is very peculiar. The order to "send the word" is heard as "send da woid".

    Four great Neapolitan songs conclude this vintage collection.

    5 out of 5 stars Breathtaking.......2007-06-27

    Caruso's performances are purely breathtaking. This set does not attempt to over-process the sound as some do. All the 78 RPM noise gets through and so does all the music. This is the way these recordings should be heard. Was Caruso's voice really that fantastic or is it just that the recording process of the day was perfectly suitable to his voice? It doesn't matter - what you will hear on each and every track is Caruso giving everything he's got. There will never be another like him, and there's no better way to get his material on CD than this series. The only thing you could do beter is get the original 78's.
