EDITH MASON – SOPRANO

 

Edith Mason had one of the loveliest and most admired voices in opera – her too few recordings are sought after today as rarities indeed.  Crest is pleased to release a special two-hour CD & Audiocassette of Miss Mason consisting of an hour interview by Studs Terkle (Chicago radio celebrity – 1966) and most of her known Brunswick recordings from her personal collection including three unpublished songs with piano accompaniment by Frank Black.
