From Wikipedia: Frieda Hempel (26 June 1885 – 7 October 1955) was a German soprano singer in operatic and concert work who had an international career in Europe and the United States. Hempel was born in Leipzig and studied first at the Leipzig Conservatory and afterwards at the Stern Conservatory, Berlin, where she was a pupil of Selma Nicklass-Kempner. Her earliest appearances were in Breslau, singing Violetta, the Queen of the Night and Rosina. She made a debut in Schwerin in 1905, and was engaged there for the next two years, singing also Gilda, Leonora (Il Trovatore) and Woglinde. She made such a success that the Kaiser Wilhelm II requested the Schwerin authorities to release her to sing also in Berlin. She made a debut there in 1905 as Frau Fluth (in Nicolai's Die Lustigen Weiber von Windsor). She sang at the Royal Court Opera, Berlin, from 1907 to 1912, where she was also admired as Lucia, Marguerite de Valois and Marie. She appeared at the Covent Garden, London in 1907 as Bastienne, as Humperdinck's Hänsel und Gretel, as Eva and Elsa and again as Frau Fluth: Melba and Selma Kurz were taking centre stage in the more popular roles. In 1912 she made her debut at the Metropolitan Opera, in New York City as Marguerite de Valois in Les Huguenots. She sang regularly in New York thereafter into the 1920s. She was the first to sing the Marschallin in Der Rosenkavalier in New York (for Gatti-Casazza, December 9, 1913) and in Berlin, and she also sang the role in London in 1913. She was in the Met 1913 Un Ballo in Maschera as Oscar, with Caruso, Emmy Destinn, Margarete Matzenauer and Pasquale Amato; also the 1916 Marriage of Figaro with Matzenauer, Geraldine Farrar and Antonio Scotti. Her La Fille du Régiment was presented there in 1917. Hempel had a very wide dramatic range, from Rosina or Queen of the Night to Wagner's Eva and Weber's Euryanthe (Metropolitan, 1914 revival). After 1919 she devoted herself to concert recitals, and left the Metropolitan Opera House somewhat abruptly, making way for the career of Amelita Galli-Curci. However she then made a second career on the concert platform, excelling in the performance of lieder of Mozart, Schubert, Schumann, Brahms and Wolf, in Mozart concert arias, and the like. She became famous for recitals in which she appeared in costume as the famous nineteenth-century soprano Jenny Lind. She died in Berlin in 1955 at the age of 70.

Hempel sings Mimi's aria from 'La Boheme,' recorded in Berlin on 18 September 1913. This side is a little more 'well-loved' than those I have previously uploaded, but still quite acceptable.

Georges Bizet CARMEN "La fleur que tu m'avais jetée"- disco acustico Gramophone, Parigi - matrice 02234v - numero di catalogo 032239 - data dell'incisione 28 novembre 1911. Tenore francese François Gauthier in arte - PAUL FRANZ - (Parigi 30.11.1876 - Parigi 20.4.1950) Inizialmente era un dipendente del ferrovie francesi, e non fu avviato all'apprendimento del canto fino all'età di quasi 30 anni (!). Rivelatosi nel marzo 1908 in un concorso per tenori dilettanti organizzato dai periodici Musica e Comoedia , studia a Parigi con Louis Delaquerrière. Dopo essersi esibito a Nantes nel gennaio 1909 ottenendo un notevole successo, ha subito attirato l'attenzione del direttore del Grand Opéra di Parigi, scritturato, vi debutta l'1 febbraio 1909 vi rimane come membro fino al 1938. Egli è stato molto ammirato, non solo rispetto a Jean de Reszke, ma anche ai grandi Ernest van Dyck e Charles Rousselière. Come Lohengrin, cui fanno seguito Sansone e Dalida e Sigurd di Reyer; nel settembre del 1909 canta nel Faust e Roméo et Juliette, rivaleggiando col giovane tenore Lucien Muratore; vi rimane come primo tenore fino al 1938. Tra il 1910 e il 1914 è impegnato fra Parigi e Londra, dove interpreta il repertorio tenorile più difficoltoso Radamès, Otello, Raoul degli Ugonotti, Giovanni di Leyda nel Profeta, Rodrigo nel Cid di Massenet, continuando però ad esibirsi nel genere lirico francese come Louise di Charpentier, Roméo et Juliette di Gounod, che al Covent Garden cantò al fianco di Nellie Melba. Si avvicina al repertorio wagneriano, e la sua affermazione è notevole, di fatto ebbe un grande successo sempre all'Opéra di Parigi nel marzo del 1911 quale Walter nei Maestri Cantori e poi nel Tristano e Isotta, nella Tetralogia e finalmente nel primo Parsifal (4 febbraio 1913), dove assicura anche le prime locali di, Les Troyens e Hérodiade di Massenet Canta poco lontano da Parigi e Londra: 1910-14 Bruxelles; Monte Carlo 1922-27. Tra il 1920 e il 1930 cantò molte prime assolute di compositori francesi come: d'Indy, Dupont, Rabaud, Roussel, Bruneau Gunsbourg e altri. All'Opéra cantò anche in La Juive di Halévy, e La Damnation de Faust di Berlioz. Diede l'addio alle scene il 12 luglio 1938 all'Opéra di Parigi. Paul Franz fu una delle più grandi voci del secolo; famoso per la sua dizione e presenza scenica, e l'esempio più indicativo di un grande cantante francese che non ha mai ambito a una carriera internazionale. Il suo repertorio francese include ruoli come ad esempio Eléazar in La Juive, Roméo, Faust, Sansone, Don José, Sigurd, Jean, Roderigue a Le Cid ed Enée de Les Troyens. Per il repertorio italiano sono stati Radames e Otello. Il suo repertorio wagneriano comprendeva Tannhäuser, Parsifal, Stolzing, Siegmund, Siegfried e Tristan. È stato molto acclamato al Covent Garden, dove ha cantato tra 1910 - 1914 (Raoul, Julien in Louise, Radames e Otello). Nel 1915 apparve alla Scala e nel 1918 al Teatro Colón di Buenos Aires. Dopo il suo addio alle scene, è stato nominato professore presso il Conservatorio Nazionale di Parigi.
