Theo Karle Johnston was the first musical talent to emerge from the Pacific Northwest and become an international star. While still a teenager, Johnston worked as a church soloist in Olympia before moving to Seattle, where he trained as an operatic tenor. In 1915 he headed to America's music capitol, New York City, where he made a big splash at his concert debut, wowing the city's elite musicians and arts critics alike. Using the stage name "Theo Karle," he passed an audition with the Victor label, cut his first discs in 1916, and produced many others for the Brunswick label throughout the 1920s. Dubbed "The Western Tenor," Karle became a concert headliner, often performing alongside many of the era's opera legends and singing in prestigious venues from London to Paris to Monte Carlo. He also served in World War I, and from 1930 to 1934 performed several shows weekly on the CBS radio network, later performing on a pioneering TV show. With his wife, Nora, a pianist, he often returned to the Northwest for concerts. The couple moved back to Seattle in 1941, where Karle taught music and continued to record before passing away on May 7, 1972. [READ MORE...]
Among Karle's many, many, recordings are these which appeared on the American Tenor Theo Karle [1893-1972] compact disc.
