I've put this video together, as much as anything, to gather up all the tiny fragments of film footage that I've found of the great Australian soprano, Dame Nellie Melba (1861-1931). Somewhat to my surprise, they give a strong sense of the diva's determined personality, as I understand it from 'Melba -- A Biography' (1968) by John Heatherington.
To complement this footage, I've added an audio of the legendary soprano singing 'Del ciel clemente un riso' from Gaetano Donizetti's 'Lucia di Lammermoor' (1835). This recording was one of a number of London metal masters from 1904 discovered in a vault at the old Gramophone Company's manufacturing plant in Hanover in Germany in 2007 -- the event being reported in 2008 on ABC Television in Australia with the sopranoYvonne Kenny as talking head.
The find was also reported in The Australian newspaper on 1st December 2008, along with an archive for posterity devised at the Paris Opera in 1907 - a time capsule (two urns) containing 24 gramophone records of the great singers of the day, such as Enrico Caruso and Emma Calve, Adelina Patti and Nellie Melba:
http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/melbas-buried-voice-surfaces-to-haunt/story-e6frg6n6-1111118291134
Melba's voice of 1904, while it did not possess the limpid freshness of her first years, was still in wonderful condition - she was only forty-three.
Following the film fragments, there is the audio track of the initial part of her Farewell Speech from the stage of Covent Garden in 1926. It gives a sense of her speaking voice -- she is a strong and confident public speaker, and quite in command of the proceedings.
Heatherington tells in his biography that, at one point during the speech, Melba broke down and the curtain was drawn. At this point, the diva turned angrily to the stage hands and yelled something like 'Open them back up!' with an expletive thrown in - and began to gently sob again as she r-appeared to the audience.
Enjoy!

Sempre con fe' sincera,

Sempre con fe' sincera
diedi fiori agli altar.

perché, perché Signore,
perché me ne rimuneri così?

lyrics
Lo, here the gentle lark, weary of rest,
From his moist cabinet mounts up on high,
And wakes the morning, from whose silver breast
The sun ariseth in his majesty;
Who doth the world so gloriously behold
That cedar-tops and hills seem burnish'd gold.
Venus salutes him with this fair good-morrow:
'O thou clear god, and patron of all light,
From whom each lamp and shining star doth borrow
The beauteous influence that makes him bright,
There lives a son that suck'd an earthly mother,
May lend thee light, as thou dost lend to other.

This is early Melba, recorded in 1904. The great soprano shows the middle range of her voice, always strong, to considerable advantage in this simple but attractive song, as she is only 43 years old at the time of its recording. Melba was a world-wide phonemon in her day, and her hauteur and severe bearing, while it made her few friends among other musicians, served her well enough with the general public during the Victorian era, with its marked aristocratic vogue.

Nellie Melba
Dame Nellie Melba GBE (19 May 1861 – 23 February 1931), born Helen Porter Mitchell, was an Australian operatic soprano. She became one of the most famous singers of the late Victorian era and the early 20th century. She was the first Australian to achieve international recognition as a classical musician. She took the pseudonym "Melba" from Melbourne, her home town.
Melba studied singing in Melbourne and made a modest success in performances there. After a brief and unsuccessful marriage, she moved to Europe in search of a singing career. Failing to find engagements in London in 1886, she studied in Paris and soon made a great success there and in Brussels. Returning to London she quickly established herself as the leading lyric soprano at Covent Garden from 1888. She soon achieved further success in Paris and elsewhere in Europe, and later at the Metropolitan Opera, New York, debuting there in 1893. Her repertoire was small; in her whole career she sang no more than 25 roles and was closely identified with only ten. She was known for her performances in French and Italian opera, but sang little German opera.

1947, role: actress , character name: Herself
Famous quotes by Nellie Melba:
"My voice has been raised not only in song, but to make the big world outside through me, understand something of the spirit of my beloved country."
"If I'd been a housemaid I'd have been the best in Australia -- I couldn't help it. It's got to be perfection for me."
"One of the drawbacks of fame is that one can never escape from it."
"The first rule in opera is the first rule in life: see to everything yourself."
"Always sing below your potential."
"If I'd been a housemaid I'd have been the best in Australia - I couldn't help it. It's got to be perfection for me."
"Do everything yourself."

I've put this video together, as much as anything, to gather up all the tiny fragments of film footage that I've found of the great Australian soprano, Dame Nellie Melba (1861-1931). Somewhat to my surprise, they give a strong sense of the diva's determined personality, as I understand it from 'Melba -- A Biography' (1968) by John Heatherington.
To complement this footage, I've added an audio of the legendary soprano singing 'Del ciel clemente un riso' from Gaetano Donizetti's 'Lucia di Lammermoor' (1835). This recording was one of a number of London metal masters from 1904 discovered in a vault at the old Gramophone Company's manufacturing plant in Hanover in Germany in 2007 -- the event being reported in 2008 on ABC Television in Australia with the sopranoYvonne Kenny as talking head.
The find was also reported in The Australian newspaper on 1st December 2008, along with an archive for posterity devised at the Paris Opera in 1907 - a time capsule (two urns) containing 24 gramophone records of the great singers of the day, such as Enrico Caruso and Emma Calve, Adelina Patti and Nellie Melba:
http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/melbas-buried-voice-surfaces-to-haunt/story-e6frg6n6-1111118291134
Melba's voice of 1904, while it did not possess the limpid freshness of her first years, was still in wonderful condition - she was only forty-three.
Following the film fragments, there is the audio track of the initial part of her Farewell Speech from the stage of Covent Garden in 1926. It gives a sense of her speaking voice -- she is a strong and confident public speaker, and quite in command of the proceedings.
Heatherington tells in his biography that, at one point during the speech, Melba broke down and the curtain was drawn. At this point, the diva turned angrily to the stage hands and yelled something like 'Open them back up!' with an expletive thrown in - and began to gently sob again as she r-appeared to the audience.
Enjoy!

Lo, here the gentle lark, weary of rest,
From his moist cabinet mounts up on high,
And wakes the morning, from whose silver breast
The sun ariseth in his majesty;
Who doth the world so gloriously behold
That cedar-tops and hills seem burnish'd gold.
Venus salutes him with this fair good-morrow:
'O thou clear god, and patron of all light,
From whom each lamp and shining star doth borrow
The beauteous influence that makes him bright,
There lives a son that suck'd an earthly mother,
May lend thee light, as thou dost lend to other.

This is early Melba, recorded in 1904. The great soprano shows the middle range of her voice, always strong, to considerable advantage in this simple but attractive song, as she is only 43 years old at the time of its recording. Melba was a world-wide phonemon in her day, and her hauteur and severe bearing, while it made her few friends among other musicians, served her well enough with the general public during the Victorian era, with its marked aristocratic vogue.
