M-A MB 45 “With his strong family theatrical background, becoming a dancer, training and performing as an actor with the great Sarah Bernhardt and winning an award as a singer at the Paris Conservatoire, Charles Friant occupied a special place in a long line of French tenors active in the first half of the 20th century….He not only moved extraordinarily well on stage, portraying a role with histrionic subtlety but, more importantly, sang with great taste, style and musicality. His many talents were both natural and also the result of training and, although not unique, it seems rare today to find all these gifts apparent in one tenor. He was without doubt a truly fine and important French artist.” - Alan Bilgora, THE RECORD COLLECTOR, 2016 J0581.

10¼“ H & D black paper label Canadian-Pathé 127 (0777/0838), recorded 1910. A to M-A MB 20 “David Devriès was a typical example of the tenor lèger of opéra-comique. He was endowed with an agreeable timbre, a voice of some flexibility, clear, brilliant, a delicious mezza-voce, a head voice of great beauty and a sensational, genuine trill. The charm of his emission was pure, soft, elegant; he could caress the note, ‘la voce pastosa’ as the Italians say, all combined with a perfect, impeccable diction with open vowels, so that each word could be clearly and perfectly understood.” - Alfred de Cock, THE RECORD COLLECTOR, 2004 J0597. JULIEN LEPRESTRE: LES DRAGONS DE VILLARS – Ne parle pas, Rose (Maillart) / MANON – Ah! fuyez, douce image. 10½” brown & gold French Odéon 36431/32 (XP 2138/39). A-B, fine copy has lt.rubs, inaud.; Sd.1 only has tiny audible pressing bump. MB 35 “Leprestre made his Opéra-Comique début as Des Grieux at an important revival of MANON which marked the role début of Georgette Bréjean-Gravière (not yet Silver), historically the third major exponent of the role, and for whom Massenet subsequently wrote the Fabliau as an alternative to the Gavotte. When Leprestre recorded his 11 sides for Odéon in 1905, his operatic career was largely behind him….They do, however, convey a good impression of this fine singer, then only 41. He can be heard to particular advantage…the resonant, well projected voice, free at the top, is characterized by its clear, attractive, slightly nasal timbre…. Another classic French Opéra-Comique tradition is the effective use of voix mixte and ‘covering’ at the top. This feature is also in evidence in Sylvain’s romance from LES DRAGONS DE VILLARS….As for the MANON aria (missing the middle section as is often the case in early recordings) it is a classic account, vibrant yet free from exaggeration, with a subtle, unaffected use of portamento, and a useful testimony of an important revival of the work, for which Leprestre probably benefited from the composer’s advice.” - Vincent Giroud, Marston Program Notes J0598. DINH GILLY, w.George Reeves (Pf.): Amarilli (Caccini) / O del mio amato ben (Donaudy). 12” silver Victor IRCC 188, POM-1928.
