Scheinst zu schlafen du im Stübchen

Margarethe: Serenade (Scheinst zu schlafen du im Stübchen - Gounod)

29 cm Pathé 5115

Other Numbers: 41518

Peter LORDMANN - Bass  (& Orch.)

(rec. between 1909 and 1912)

On the other side: 51155 Fluch-Arie aus Jüdin

Note: On old Pathé sleeves is written, that these records run at a speed of 90 to 100 rpm. As there is no concrete speed given and I don’t have perfect pitch, I have compared this recording with other recordings of the same aria and have choosen a speed which pleases my ear and where the voice sounds natural to me. Proposed speed here: 91,3 rpm.

As Pathé discs were made by copies from a master cylinder recording, the other given numbers are not a matrix number but the number of the transfer cylinder or something else.
