Pagen-Arie aus "Die Hugenotten" (54915) 87,3 rpm

About this film

Die Hugenotten: Pagen-Arie (Meyerbeer) 29 cm Pathé 54915 Matrix Nr. 80380 RA Adelaide Andrejewa VON SKILONDZ - Sopran (& Orch.) rec. ca. 1913 Transfered at 87,3 rpm (see Note). On the other side: 54913 Arie der Philine (Mignon) Note : These were my first transfers of Pathé recordings. I have used my normal record player with the usual cartridge, and it worked (with a few limitations and difficulties). Meanwhile I have learned that a phase corrected file sounds better, and I have uploaded the better version. On a Pathé sleeve is written, that these records run at a speed of 90 to 100 rpm. As there is no concrete speed given and I don’t have perfect pitch, I have choosen a speed which pleases my ear and where the voice sounds natural to me.
