Recorded in 1929 with the J. H. Squire Celeste Octet Dora Labbette (4 March 1898 / 3 Sept 1984) was an English soprano. Her career spanned the concert hall and the opera house. She conspired with Sir Thomas Beecham to appear at the Royal Opera House masquerading as an Italian singer by the name of Lisa Perli. Away from professional concerns she had an affair with Beecham, with whom she had a son. Labbette was born Dorothy Bella Labbett in the London suburb of Purley, the daughter of a railway porter. She studied at the Guildhall School of Music, where she won the Melba scholarship, the Knill challenge cup for the best student of the year, and the Heilbut scholarship. She also studied with Liza Lehmann, who took her to sing to the music publisher and impresario William Boosey, who gave her a contract to sing songs published by his company, at "Ballad concerts, Promenades and Sunday evening concerts". She made her Wigmore Hall début in 1917, and in April 1918 married a soldier, Captain David Strang of the Royal Engineers. He wanted her to abandon her musical career, but she refused and left him after nineteen months of marriage to continue singing. She had a long recital and oratorio career in which she appeared in London and in the provinces. She was the soprano soloist at the first performance of Delius's Idyll in 1933. After making her operatic debut in Oxford in 1934, in Rameau's Castor et Pollux Labbette took the role of Mimì in La bohème at Covent Garden in 1935, using the mock-Italian name "Lisa Perli", after her birthplace, Purley. The press and public were not long deceived by the pseudonym, and she was rapidly accepted as an opera singer. When the hoax was revealed, The Gramophone published a short verse which included the lines: Dora Labbette! Dora Labbette, O! We rather like our pocket prima donna, Who sings as well as any twenty-tonner. Will Perli last? Will she become a habit, Or dwindle back into Miss Dora Labbette? In a later interview, Labbette explained that she had found it impossible to break out of the concert and oratorio repertoire into opera. "As for the Messiah, the Creation and Elijah, I must have sung the leading soprano parts in these oratorios hundreds of times, until I felt I would shriek if I were asked to do them again.... But it seemed quite hopeless and against all tradition that a singer who had been identified with the concert platform should desire to appear on the operatic stage." The critic Neville Cardus wrote of her, "Lisa Perli is the best of our Mimis. She has a genius for diminutive pathos and in the closing scene she can bring moistness to the throat of the hardened critic." After this operatic success, she went to Paris and studied Debussy's Pelléas and Mélisande, subsequently singing Melisande at Vichy and Bordeaux and at Covent Garden the following summer. In the autumn of 1937 she sang Mimì in La Bohème at Berlin, Munich and Dresden. After the first performance in Berlin, she was engaged to sing Mignon in German. Her other operatic roles included Desdemona in Otello, Juliette in Roméo et Juliette, and Marguerite in Faust.[12] The New Grove Dictionary of Opera said of her: "Her voice was true, pure and youthful, and she was an outstanding actress." Labbette made many gramophone records, including the first complete Messiah, conducted by Sir Thomas Beecham, with whom she had an affair lasting thirteen years, which produced a son, Paul. World War II cut short her London career, and her last operatic performances were on tour with the Carl Rosa Opera Company. Among her last concert performances was in The Creation, with Beecham, in Sydney in 1940. Hubert Eisdell, tenor, teacher +••.••(...)) Hubert Mortimer Eisdell, an English tenor who settled in Canada in his later years, enjoyed considerable success on the concert stage in both England and Canada. While his musical training and earliest performances took place in England, Eisdell made several visits to Canada between 1907 and 1930. After taking up permanent residence in Ontario in 1933, he became involved in the Canadian music scene as a performer and teacher. For a detailed biography visit (http•••)
Gemeinsam an einem Strang ziehen - das machen die katholische und die evangelische Kirche in vielen Bereichen. Um einige dieser ökumenischen Projekte geht es in der März-Ausgabe des Ev. Fernsehmagazins "Grüß Gott Oberfranken!". Caritas und Diakonie zum Beispiel haben sich bei der ökumenischen Bahnhofsmission dem Ziel verschrieben, Bahnreisende und Hilfsbedürftige zu unterstützen - unentgeltlich und aus reiner Nächstenliebe. "Grüß Gott Oberfranken!" hat eine Ehrenamtliche bei ihrem Einsatz begleitet. Fünf Wochen lang täglich eine Viertelstunde Zeit, um zu beten und über Glaubens-Impulse nachzudenken - das nehmen sich auch in diesem Jahr wieder so manche Christen in der Fastenzeit von Aschermittwoch bis Ostern. Diesmal stehen die sogenannten "ökumenischen Alltagsexerzitien" unter dem Motto "Frei". Die Redaktion begleitet eine Teilnehmerin bei ihrem Glaubensweg. Musik verbindet und funktioniert am besten gemeinsam - in dem Fall im Duett. Das Kirchenmusiker-Ehepaar Funke-Barjak aus Bayreuth lebt in ökumenischer Ehe. Während am Sonntag Michael Funke in der katholischen Kirche Orgel spielt, ist seine Frau Luisa in der Evangelischen Kirche beim Gottesdienst im Einsatz. Gemeinsames Proben und ökumenische Chorprojekte gehören bei den beiden sonst aber zum Alltag. In der Rubrik "Mein Lieblingsplatz" stellt die Gemeinde Weidenberg im Landkreis Bayreuth ihren "ökumenischen Platz" vor, an der drei Eichen symbolisch für die lebendige Gemeinschaft der katholischen, evangelischen und alt-katholischen Kirchengemeinden gepflanzt wurden. Das Fernsehmagazin wird diesmal moderiert von Daniela Schuberth. #GGO #grüßgottoberfranken #ökumene Redaktion: Maike Stark www.sonntagsblatt.de Chefredakteurin (V.i.S.d.P.): Rieke C.

Ture Rangström Soile Isokoski Falla Kan Vad Ett 1884 1947
"Vinden och trädet" is a song by Ture Rangström +••.••(...)), a Swedish composer. This version is sung by Soile Isokoski, a Finnish soprano. The picture is one of Isokoski. Marita Viitasalo is playing the piano. :----)) Lyrics / Solen går och lägger sig i sin mörka gömma. Skuggor falla på min stig. Tror du jag kan glömma dig? Jag kan aldrig glömma. Solen stiger ur sin säng morgonröd om kinden för att glädja skog och äng. Tror du jag kan vara sträng, fast du for som vinden? Vinden blåser vart den vill, har så många nycker, är ej vind om den är still. Tror du jag kan göra till vad en vindfläkt tycker? Jag är trädet som du fick sommargrönt att sjunga. Tror du jag ett ögonblick glömt det fastän sommarn gick, sommarn och det unga? Lyrics in English / The sun goes to rest in its dark hiding place. Shadows fall across my path. Do you think I can forget you? - I can never forget. The sun rises up rosy-cheeked from its bed to gladden the woods and meadow. Do you think I bear you any grudge, though you fled away like wind? The wind blows where it will, it has so many whims. It isn't wind if it stands still. Can I help the thoughts of a breeze? I am the tree you made to sing when I was green with summer. Do you think I have forgotten a single moment, even though summer is gone - summer and all young things? / ENJOY! :----))
