Historic Masters was a historical reissue record label dedicatedto making available quality
pressings on vinyl of rare 78 rpm recordings ofopera singers.
Originally an offshoot of the British Institute of RecordedSound, Historic Masters was the
brainchildof the actor, record collector andconnoisseur of singers, Richard Bebb. The initial
HistoricMasters release wasplanned as a subscriber-only series of twenty reissues, pressed
on highqualityvinyl using original metal parts from the EMI archive.
The first release was despatched to subscribers in 1973.Despite making a profit, theBritish
Institute of Recorded Sound lost interestin the project. To fill the gap, Historic Masters Ltd,
was set up as anindependent company. It was able to release its first reissue in 1983: a setof
fiverecords produced in a similar manner as before and again distributed on asubscriber-only
basis.
Many more releases followed along similar lines, includingsome records which had never
previously been released in any format. As of2011, when Historic Masters ceased operation,
theyhad released over two hundred discs byhistoric singers, including larger collections of
recordingsby Fernando DeLucia, Nellie Melba, Adelina Patti and Francesco Tamagno.
