Soprano Elisabeth Schumann, with pianist Ernest Lush, sings "Ein Männern steht im Walde... Der kleine Sandmann bin ich" (from act II of "Hänsel und Gretl" by Engelbert Humperdinck) on Victor Red Seal record 1948-B, played on an EMG Mark Xb Oversize gramophone with a Meltrope III soundbox and a Burmese Colour Needle. Recorded August 28, 1935, Abbey Road, London - the first take. A bit noisier than most Victor Red Seal discs...
