John McCormack - The Acoustic Victor And HMV Recordings 1912 1914
Review by Philip Allen
The Acoustic Victor And HMV Recordings 1912 1914 by John McCormack is a delightful album that showcases the Irish tenor's exceptional vocal range and emotional depth. The album features a collection of McCormack's acoustic recordings made for Victor and HMV between 1912 and 1914, and it captures the essence of his early career. The songs are a mix of Irish ballads, operatic arias, and popular tunes of the time, and McCormack's voice shines in each one.
The album opens with "The Star of the County Down," a traditional Irish ballad that McCormack sings with warmth and clarity. His rendition of the aria "Che gelida manina" from Puccini's La bohème is equally impressive, showcasing his operatic training and his ability to convey emotion through his voice. Other standout tracks include "The Bard of Armagh," "Ave Maria," and "The Last Rose of Summer."
