\nAnni Frind Fred Drissen – Ein Abend Bei Paul Lincke Part 2]<\/a><\/p>\n

Yesterday I featured<\/a> a 1909 recording by Sousa’s band of a song composed by German composer Paul Lincke<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0 Here is a potpourri recording with some of Lincke’s more famous compositions, including selections from his operetta Frau Luna<\/em> as well as “The Glow Worm.”<\/p>\n

Anni Frind<\/a> was a highly successful German opera and operetta star in the 1920s and 1930s.\u00a0 Staunchly opposed to Adolf Hitler, she retired from the stage at the start of World War II and spent the war singing for Allied soliders and working as a volunteer nurse.\u00a0 She moved to the United States in the early 1950s and worked as a singing instructor at Tulane University in New Orleans.<\/p>\n

Fred Drissen<\/a> was a German concert singer.\u00a0 While he did not appear in operatic productions, he did perform opera in the recording studio and on radio.<\/p>\n

Note the white sticker “Made In England For Radio Corporation of America” in the label image.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 My copy is an imported British pressing on the HMV label with all label information in German. \u00a0 The original release was on HMV’s German subsidiary label Electrola with both the German Electrola and the British HMV pressings featuring identical catalog numbers.<\/p>\n

I am guessing that demand for this recording was\u00a0 strong enough in the UK to warrant a British pressing – but perhaps not strong enough to justify label credits in English.\u00a0\u00a0 There was undoubtedly too little demand in the United States to justify a separate US pressing – but those interested were obviously able to obtain an imported copy through RCA Victor which had close corporate ties with HMV.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
