Lebedev Sirena Troup Shumsky 1873 1904 1910 1913 1916 1920 1939 1960
Duet: Aaron Lebiedew i Gospoża (Madame) Cyla Rappel - Shlomkele und Chankele (Shlomo and Hannah) from Operetta "Shir Hashirim" Sung in Jewish, Sirena Grand Rekord 1913 (Russian language label; Recorded in Warsaw, Poland in April 1913 / Released in Sankt Petersburg, Russia) NOTE: This recording would be the rarest rarity in each record collection! It is an early production of Polish record company Syrena Electro ( in the accoustic recordings era, the label names: Syrena Grand Rekord or Syrena). It is one of SGR series of the Jewish-language recordings made by Jewish actors of the Warsaw theatres with purpose of distribution in an enormous Russian market. Until outbreak of the 1stWW the sales rate of Syrena records in the whole Russian Empire reached 2,500 000 copies! Never in its history, Syrena recording-empire created in Warsaw in 1904 by Juliusz Feigenbaum (and annihilated by the Germans in Autumn 1939, with the outbreak of the 2nd World War) was so successful as in the years of making business with the Tzarist Russia! Aaron LEBIEDIEW (also: Lebedev, Lebedieff b.1873 / d.1960) was a Polish-Russian Jewish actor and vadeuvillist. Born in the Imperial Russian town of Homel (formerly belonging to Poland, now: in Belarus) in childhood, he sung in a synagogue as a juvenile cantor (chazzan). Having declared himself as absoolutely non-interested in any kind of education, he was sent to learn a trade, but soon he ran away and began to play small roles in Russian theaters in Bobroysk, Minsk and other towns. When the Russian troup fell apart, he went back to Homel, taking part in amateur theater and opening a dance club. He was officially a chorister, unofficially a stage hand, he dressed the actors and was a prompter. He finally debuted in "Der Pipkiner rav" and became the character actor he would remain, playing in different wandering theater troups across Russia. Around 1910 he was hired in Warsaw, then in Lodz to perform in Jewish theatres, in popular comedies and vadeuvilles. In 1913 he made solo and in duets with other Jewish theatr artists a series of recordings for Syrena Records in Warsaw / including almost full coverage of otherwise forgotten Jewish Operetta "Shir Hashirim" (in uncomplete Syrena Grand Record catalogue, the series contains almost 16 sides!). At the outbreak of World War I, he was pressed into the Russian army and sent to Harbin, Manchuria (1916), where he spent his time giving concerts for the officers. After being demobilized, he sung in Russian or English for the American Red Cross. He married Vera Lubow and through China, they wandered toward Japan, presenting "International Concerts". In 1920, they managed to embark on a ship to America, where both of them were hired for Boris Thomashevsky's National Theater production of Wolf Shumsky's "Lyavke Molodyetz". Aaron was such a hit that he became an overnight star of Yiddish theater in America. In 1920s and 30s he performed in dozens of Jewish shows and all sorts of stage performances, but predominantly he was a coupletist, composing dozens of comic songs for Broadway theatres. He recorded hundreds of sides including the famous "Rumania, Rumania" and "Vot ken yu makh, s'iz Amerike!". He never performed in Europe. To my regret, I did not find any data about the life of Cyla Rappel.
Oscar Shumsky Fritz Kreisler Couperin
(I HAVE THE SOLO VIOLIN SHEET MUSIC FOR THIS. IF YOU WOULD LIKE IT, MESSAGE ME WITH YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS AND I CAN SEND IT TO YOU.) Oscar Shumsky playing Fritz Kreisler's La Précieuse in the Style of Couperin. Piano: William Wolfram Taken from Fritz Kreisler Violin Music, Vol. II by MusicMasters
This is a rare world-premere recording of the Rode Caprices revealing Mr Oscar Shumsky as one of the best soloists the world has ever known: deadly accurate intonation, effortless technique, a warm lush tone, expressive vibrato, and ultimately the ability to create musical drama. I can say he was easily my favorite of all Auer pupils and when you hear a recording like this it makes you wonder how many more incredible performances he has made that should have been captured but never were! Without a doubt he was one of the true greats of the 20th Century! I have uploaded rare out of print and unreleased recordings that are difficult to find, I hope you like them. Since they are so difficult to find no one should mind me uploading them, if you have issues with me uploading them please send me a message and I will remove them.
