[78-L] Identify operatic song and singer in 1934 Jack Hulbert film Jack Ahoy; Bretton Byrd question

[Steve Shapiro]

Thanks.  Yes.  The final scene of Faust.

Any idea who is singing here?  This has to be a 78.

Also check out the set (in the tailor shop!) behind the sailors as they drift into their dream./steve
