EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting presence of Victor Capoul (1839-1924), an esteemed tenor of the Paris Opera Comique and one of the earliest singers to leave an indelible mark on the history of recorded music. Born in Paris, Capoul began his musical studies at a young age and made his operatic debut in 1861 as Almaviva in Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro." Over the next several decades, he graced the stages of the Opera Comique and other prestigious European theaters, earning acclaim for his expressive voice and captivating stage presence. In this image, Capoul is depicted in a thoughtful and introspective pose, holding a sheet of music and a stylus poised above a stave. The bird perched on the music stand adds an intriguing and whimsical touch to the scene, perhaps symbolizing the freedom and beauty of music itself. Capoul's eyes are closed, suggesting that he is lost in the music, fully immersed in the creative process. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history of opera and the art of singing, as well as the enduring power of music to transport us to another world. Capoul's legacy as one of the earliest singers to be recorded continues to inspire and influence musicians and music lovers around the world. This image is a must-have for any collection dedicated to the history of opera, music, or the performing arts.
