Cesar Formichi was an Italian operatic bass-baritone who recorded extensively in Europe in the early 20th century, known for his fine voice and dramatic interpretations. The 'Toreador Song' from Carmen is one of his signature roles; this Columbia D-series 78 preserves his performance, likely from electrical recording of the late 1920s.
