The popularity of Paolo Tosti's songs in the early 20th century, even in the U.S., is indicated by a satirical tune, I Want to Know Where Tosti Went (When He Sang Goodbye Forever) from the Black minstrel performer Bert Williams. In Britain, he was at the top of the charts, being paid handsomely by a publisher for 12 songs a year. That wasn't a problem; he ended up writing some 400 songs, of which this release by tenor Javier Camarena barely scratches the surface. Today, Tosti is either forgotten or grouped with the Neapolitan song composers. He could write Neapolitan songs (a good example here is Marechiare), but that was just one facet of his output. Camarena seeks to explore the variety of Tosti's work rather than simply delivering greatest hits, and in fact, Goodbye Forever is not included, but there is a fairly ambitious song cycle, Quattro canzoni d'Amaranta, about which one might be hard pressed to guess the composer if one didn't already know. There are also songs in English dating from Tosti's British sojourn and a set of French Mélodies. Camarena overcompensates with rhoticism in some of the English (Tosti's songs were British, not American), but in the main body of Italian pieces, he sounds great, applying but not overdoing a dose of sentiment. The biggest thing most listeners will take away from this album is that Tosti is an underrated composer; the songs here are light, but they are never formulaic, and the program is thoroughly enjoyable. Camarena gets solid support from accompanist Ángel Rodriguez and from the PentaTone label's engineers, working in a San Francisco Conservatory of Music recital hall.
