DUA, Octave, Emperor Altoum, Turandot, Coronation Season, Covent Garden, London, 1937

Octave Dua, Belgian secondary tenor, supporting/cameo artist and stage director (1882-1952). Entirely forgotten, despite a superb international career. Hence the scarcity of his iconographic/acoustic material.

 

Has also sung Pang and Pong.
