César Vezzani (1888-1951) was one of those rare tenors who had nearly everything: a large and gorgeous voice, a ringing top, a high degree of intelligence, ability to sing with great sensitivity, and excellent musicianship. And yet, so little was known about Vezzani that it took a great deal of detective work to put together a brief biography for our first volume released early in 2003. An international career may have eluded Vezzani during his lifetime, yet his recordings leave a legacy that demonstrates an artist of the highest caliber. This second volume contains the remainder of his French HMV acoustics and a selection of French HMV electrical recordings. These include a complete Act 2, Scene 3 from Samson et Dalila of Saint Saëns with Maria Duchêne and a Bridal Chamber Scene from Wagner's Lohengrin with Mireille Berthon.
