    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luisa_Tetrazzini
    "Luisa Tetrazzini (29 June 1871 – 28 April 1940) was an Italian coloratura soprano of great international fame. Tetrazzini's voice was remarkable for its phenomenal flexibility, thrust, steadiness and thrilling tone. She enjoyed a highly successful operatic and concert career in Europe and America from the 1890s through to the 1920s, but her final years were marred by poverty and ill health."

    We've seen her before

"Alexander Richard Crooks, tenor, was born in Trenton, N.J. on June 26, 1900. He toured widely, and sang with the Metropolitan Opera Company from 1933 to 1942. Crooks recorded extensively for the Victor record company, and was featured on several radio series from 1929 to 1945. He married his childhood friend Mildred Pine in 1921 and they had two children, Patricia and Richard, Jr. In retirement, the couple settled in Portola Valley. Richard Crooks died on September 30, 1972." His NYT obituary from Oct. 1, 1972 www.nytimes.com/1972/10/01/archives/richard-croohs-tenor-... indicates that "in 1925, Mr. Crooks left for Europe to further his studies and by 1927 he was singing opera in Hamburg and Berlin." "He leaves his wife, the former Mildred Wallace Pine ..." See: www.findagrave.com/memorial/201023835/richard-crooks www.findagrave.com/memorial/200991783/mildred-wallace-crooks
