Charles Panzera sings Ballade que Villon fait à la requeste de sa mère pour prier Notre-Dame and Ballade des femmes de Paris from Trois Ballades de François Villon by Debussy. This song seems to be second and third of three songs recorded on dual face disc. Not sure whether Panzera recorded complete three. This is originally French Gramophone recording issued by Japan Victor early 30s.

Wonderful! Thanks for posting! This recording was recorded in May 18th, 1929 (exactly 80 years before today!). The orchestra director, Mario Coppola is grandfather of the movie director Francis Ford Coppola.
