Play 30s sample:

The singer and actor Herbert Ernst Groh (1906-82) was one of the most popular radio singers of the 30's and 40's, with an impressive tenor voice that compared favourable with Richard Tauber.

During his singing career he made numerous recordings and became well-known to a wide public.

He began studied singing in Milan and Munich, and in 1927 debuted in theatre in Darmstadt. That same year he also made his first record. He joined up with the Norddeutscher Rundfunk at the end of the 20's and therefound his real metier and his greatest success; Herbert Ernst Groh became a darling of the public in no time.

The opera didn't play an important part in his career, his field of activity was the radio - and from 1933 the talkies.

He made his film debut with "Das Lied vom Glück" (1933), it followed among others the productions "Schön ist es, verliebt zu sein" (1934), "Casanova heiratet" (1939) and "Sechs Tage Heimaturlaub" (1941). He also performed numerous voice-overs for less gifted singing actors.

 

The songs

The songs here are listed as shown on the British Parlophone 78 from which they were transferred. "Father, Mother..." is perhaps better known as sung - "Vater, Mutter, Schwestern, Bruder" from the 1845 opera Undine by Gustav Albert Lortzing (1801-1851, Germany); "The Trumpeter" might have been better titled "Behüt dich Gott", and comes from the 1884 opera "Der Trompeter von Säckingen" by the Alsatian composer Viktor Ernst Nessler.

FAQ
FLAC info

FLAC downloads perfectly match CD quality or higher.

More...

FLAC downloads use lossless compression - when replayed or transferred to disc they are bit- identical to original recordings.

16 BIT files are at full CD resolution, identical to our CD masters.

24 BIT files are at higher, studio master resolution, identical to our finished master files. They are not suitable for CD replay.

Please ensure you can play our 16 & 24 bit FLAC files before purchase - try our test files here.

Not all media players support FLAC yet, so you may need to convert to WAV or AIFF before playback. See our FLAC help guide and our General Help

FLAC downloads come as a series of tracks in a ZIP archive file.

 

MP3 info

Our MP3 files are encoded at the highest available bitrates.

More...

Our MP3 files are encoded at at a constant rate of 320kbps for all issues since mid-August 2008, and using the LAME encoder at high variable bitrate settings for older issues.

Each recording is presented as a single, long MP3 which can be split using the CUE sheet at the bottom of the page, automatically adding track titles and other tag information.

Most modern CD writing programs such as Nero and Burrrn can write these files directly to CD with all track information added using MP3+CUE - see our tutorial

Alternatively a cue splitter program can automatically cut and name the MP3 into individual MP3 tracks

There are also media players which use the MP3+CUE system, allowing gapless playback of all long MP3 files - essential for opera and many other classical works
