Presentation

Blanche Selva let herself be talked into recording a few 78s, made in Paris and Madrid by Columbia in 1929 and 1930. The stroke she suffered a few months later put a definitive end to a sadly short recording career.
These almost two hours of music reveal an artist in her prime, perhaps at her best.
Gilles Saint Arroman
