Alice Nielsen was an American soprano who enjoyed a considerable operatic and concert career in the early 1900s. This Columbia L-series disc, a 12-inch pressing, pairs 'Old Folks at Home' with 'In the Gloaming' — light ballad repertoire typical of her recording work for the label in the acoustic era.
