KARL JÖRN (RIGA, LATVIA, 5 JANUARY, 1873 – DENVER, COLORADO, 19 DECEMBER, 1947)


 

 

 

He made his debut in 1896 at Freiburg as Lionel in Martha. On December 13, 1904, he appeared at the Berlin Hofoper in the premiere of Ruggiero Leoncavallo’s Der Roland von Berlin. He was a member of the Metropolitan Opera for six seasons (1908-1914). In 1914, at the Berlin Deutschen Opernhaus, he sang the title role in the premiere of Richard Wagner’s Parsifal. He was a favorite of Emperor Wilhelm II, who gifted him several souvenirs on multiple occasions.

In 1916, he accepted American citizenship. During the 1920s, he lost his entire fortune and lived in obscurity as a singing teacher in Denver, Colorado. When Johanna Gadski undertook a North American tour with the German Opera Company during the 1929-1931 seasons, she invited him to join, and he once again found success performing roles such as Tristan, Siegmund, and Siegfried.

In 1932, he opened a vocal studio in New York but later returned to Denver. He was married to the soprano Else Jörn-Becker.

KARL JÖRN (RIGA, LATVIA, 5 JANUARY, 1873 – DENVER, COLORADO, 19 DECEMBER, 1947)


 

 

 

He made his debut in 1896 at Freiburg as Lionel in Martha. On December 13, 1904, he appeared at the Berlin Hofoper in the premiere of Ruggiero Leoncavallo’s Der Roland von Berlin. He was a member of the Metropolitan Opera for six seasons (1908-1914). In 1914, at the Berlin Deutschen Opernhaus, he sang the title role in the premiere of Richard Wagner’s Parsifal. He was a favorite of Emperor Wilhelm II, who gifted him several souvenirs on multiple occasions.

In 1916, he accepted American citizenship. During the 1920s, he lost his entire fortune and lived in obscurity as a singing teacher in Denver, Colorado. When Johanna Gadski undertook a North American tour with the German Opera Company during the 1929-1931 seasons, she invited him to join, and he once again found success performing roles such as Tristan, Siegmund, and Siegfried.

In 1932, he opened a vocal studio in New York but later returned to Denver. He was married to the soprano Else Jörn-Becker.

MARY GARDEN THE COMPLETE VICTOR RECORDINGS CDR

 




MARY GARDEN (ABERDEEN, SCOTLAND, 20 FEBRUARY, 1874 – ABERDEEN, SCOTLAND, 3 JANUARY, 1967)

 

 

 
 

In 1897 Garden and her singing instructor, Mrs. Robinson Duff, traveled to Paris to seek a European musical education. She sang before several of the most famous vocal coaches before finally settling with Fugère, although she never was entirely satisfied with any of them. Before long, Garden’s financial backing was gone. According to Garden’s own account she had a chance meeting with Sibyl Sanderson, who commiserated with the hapless student and invited her to stay at her Champs-Elysees apartment. Sanderson invited Albert Carré, director of the Opéra-Comique, to her home for dinner in January of 1900 and Garden sang for him. On 13 April 1900, Garden stepped into a performance of Louise midway through when the creator of the title role, Marthe Rioton, took ill. The rest, of course, is history. Seen here as Aphrodite.
