I believe this is the only surviving footage of Schumann-Heink singing (though here she is 65). Another upload of this footage on YouTube has unstable coloration and out-of-sync. I've removed the sepias and grey-greens in favor of plain black and white. I've also taken care to resync the audio. • • 1) Der Erlkönig 0:00 • 2) Trees 5:03 • 3) Pirate Dreams 7:09 • ..................................... • This channel is primarily about vocal emission—aural examples of basically correct singing, correct impostazione—chiaroscuro, vowel clarity, firm and centered pitch, correct vibrato action, absence of throatiness or thickness, sounds free from constriction and from the acoustic noise that accompanies it—with occasional video examples that demonstrate what the body, face, mouth, jaw, and tongue look like when used with correct impostazione—the vocal emission of the one and only Italian school. • Caveat: I'm biased in favor of baritones and baritone literature, but if you want to learn about and listen to all the greatest singers in the old-school tradition, explore this spreadsheet (voice parts are separated by tabs): https://bit.ly/2W4qmE3
