Mostly Germans

[Il Basso Supremissimo]

Many thanks to Samurai for starting an OPERA thread...that did result
in some interesting follow-ups...
My post is dedicated to a group of singers who made a tremendous
impact on opera..especially in the 30's and 40's in Europe..and
elsewhere......They are not always heard..unless you collect PREISER
recordings and a few others..Here are some of my special favorites,.

Tenors:

Wittrisch
Anders
Voelker (my fav.)
Kullman (American..but underrated and did a lot in Europe)
Groh

Baritones:

Hann
Bohnen
Schoeffler(my fav.)
Schlusnus
Husch

Bassos

Boehme
Nissen
L.Hoffman
Manowarda
Weber (my fav.)

Mezzos

Kllose(my fav.)
Anday
Thorborg
Leisner
Hoengen

Sopranos:

Reining
Grummer
Teschemacher
Lubin (French)
Muller

I wonder how many of you know these wonderful voices..and there are so
many more...CH
