I have a full opera of "Lucia" with Jan Peerce and Lily Pons, and as a filler on the second disc there's also some recordings of Maria Callas singing Lucia. Both were recorded at the Met in 1956, so they were both there singing around the same time. I know Maria Callas sang with Peerce's brother in law Richard Tucker. I've also seen a full opera of "Tosca" with Jan Peerce, Grace Moore, and Lawrence Tibbett put out by Myto - Any idea where I can find it (and please don't suggest eBay, because if it were there I would have bought it)? Thanks for the answer ukquilter. I've thought about it and it could be possible that they sung together but didn't record together. I would believe this to be the case of Callas and Peerce because they were both very popular so chances are they may have sung together at the Met or something, but Callas recorded for EMI and Peerce for RCA Victor. It's hard to know how to help you. The only thing I can think of with difficult-to-access information, is what has worked for me in the past: I acquired a biography of the person whose music I was interested in, and in the back was his complete discography. |
