it is so real.

Pretty extraordinary ... and THANKS, dancedarlingdance, for the many photos of Ms. Ponselle! Some (or more) of us have NEVER seen them, before! The great voice is as-solid as ever, ever-expressive, and most unique. :)

@CurzonRoad Oh, they wanted to, but she was talked into going with Columbia by Romano Romani who argued that she wold be the star with that label rather than one among many with Victor. Actually, Columbia's recordings were better in many ways. victors often sounded very muddy. Of course she did end up with Victor in the electric era.

Callas said that Ponselle was an amazing singer and that must be enough
-
Amazing!
-
Curses !@&?!
Where was Victor? How'd they manage to NOT sign Ponselle ?!
Many thanks to DanceDarlingDance to posting, and to John for sharing!

@65attila Simply wonderful. Many thanks, John, for sending and to dancedarlingdance for posting.

If they ever recorded together ir would have had to be a private recordings as until Caruso's death he was an RCA exclusive artist snd she a Columbia exclusive artist..

@65attila This is much better than the Tetrazzini-Caruso sing-a-long since Ponselle still had a beautfiul voice. I agree it is a pity there are no studio recorded duets, unless there are one or two buried in the vaults awaiting discovery. One never knows for sure. Thanks, John, for sending, and thanks to dancedarlingdance for posting.

Ponselle Interview Carmenby jfsanin2,010 views
This was a private recording made in Ponselle's home. (1950's 60's?) She was singing along with Caruso's record.
Which is why it syncs so well.
I long ago heard this recording existed, but neber heard it until now. Thanks very much.

Also, as far as I know, Caruso discovered Rosa.
She auditioned for him when she was without opera experience (21 or 22 years old)
and she got to sing Leonora from La forza del Destino, her Met debut.
