Seller on notes wrote “ Over the past 40+ years I’ve seen only two other copies of this great rarity, both in poor condition”.

 

 

Giuseppina COBELLI (Maderno 1898 – Barbarano di Salo’ 1948)

 

Her training was in Hamburg with Jacques Struckgold and in Bologna with Benvenuti. 1924 marked her debut as La Gioconda in Piacenza. The following year she made her La Scala Entrance as Kundry and remained there through 1942. Particulary noted for her verismo interpretations, her repertoire included Adriana Lecouvreur, Minnie in La Fanciulla del west, Fedora, Margherita in Boito’s Faust, Maddalena in Andrea Chenier and silvana in Respighi’s La Fiamma, which she created in Rome in 1934. She also was noted for such roles as Isolde, Sieglinde and Eboli. There are only two recordings by this great soprano., both dating from the tail end of the acoustic era and the beginning of her career. Excepting a broadcast excerpt of part of Liebestod, these are the only remaining sonic souvenirs of this exceptional artist. Magda Olivero, who inherited the role of Adriana Lecouvreur from Cobelli, recalled her as “ Intelligent, a beautiful woman with exciting personality and a wonderful voice”.

 

 

4 $ on shipping cost is NOT the right cost.

Shipping cost increase a lot. As you know, I’m first of all a collector, so I’m sensible about this problem. So, from now, for those bidders win only one record, I offer to hold the record for future winning auctions.

Bidder will pay only the record.

 

 

 

E + + A near mint copy.

E +    A choice copy no wear whatsoever.

E       Excellent. Virtually no trace of groove wear with only minimal traces of use and handling.

E –    An above average record .

E =    Record with slight degree if groove wear, but not enough to seriously detract from its audio quality.

V + + Obviously well played but still enjoyable. Noticeable greying in the grooves

V +    Very well worn but listenable Expect the surface noise to be significant. There may be stressed grooves.

V       Stressed grooves more pronounced.

 

 

As you know I’m a collector and on Ebay I try to list records that I could be satisfied if I was the buyer.

I try to be conservative on grading and list some important and also unknown Italian singers.
