Louis Cèbe
Cèbe never sang at the Paris Opéra nor the Opéra-Comique. He was part of the troupe of the
Gaîté-Lyrique, which was another important Paris theater where the most famous singers appeared and where all the
operas that were represented at the time were played. Even some important creations took place there. Cèbe's records are
very rare and can be counted on the fingers of one hand!
