These recordings were also used for the series of complete operas that were made in the acoustic recording era (1905-1925).

This is audible--one can hear the recording going on when the disc is turned. Moreover, Pathé could transfer from cylinder easily to any size of disc record they wanted (from 17 cm-50 cm diameter).
