18 Edison Phonograph Monthly, Mar., 1911 689 Medley of French-Canadian Airs Edison Concert Band In response to many requests we present the following collection of well-known FrenchCanadian airs taken from the popular "Airs Canadiens," Mosaique, compiled by J. Vezina; "La Huronne"; "Ma p'tite Mam'selle"; uO Carillon"; "En roulant ma boule"; "Vive la Canadienne," and "O Canada." This Record, because of its engaging musical qualities, will doubtless appeal to lovers of band music not only in Canada but the world over. We intend to list other Canadian melodies in the near future, such for instance as "The Maple Leaf Forever." Edison Standard Records for May, 1911 United States list, 35c ; Canadian, 40c. 10491 The Cockney Band Two-Step National (London) Military Band A bright, inspiriting two-step which is forcibly reminiscent of the Sousa style of composition. In the trio eccentric whistling effects are introduced which suggest an old-time favorite — "The Whistler and His Dog." This number is Standard No. 14033 in the British Catalog. Composer, Valentin; publishers, Hawkes & Sons, London. 10492 Silver Bell Ada Jones and Billy Murray The popularity of this pretty Indian love song is unprecedented among selections of its kind. To-day, six months after its appearance on Amberol No. 576, it is in greater demand than any Record in the Amberol catalog; for which reason we now present it as a Special in the Standard list, by the same artists and in the same form as on the Amberol. Orchestra accompaniment, with violin and bell effects. Words, Edward Madden; music, Percy Wenrich; publishers, Jerome H. Remick & Company, New York City. 10493 That Loving Soul Kiss Sophie Tucker Coon song, orchestra accompaniment. An educational effusion on the delights of osculation, in the "raggiest" kind of "rag" melody. When it comes to singing a rollicking, blustering "rag" melody in the most approved style, with an abundance of voice and vigor, all hats must be doffed to this exclusive Edison artist. Words, Arthur Longbrake; music, Ed Edwards; publishers, The Joseph Morris Company, New York City. 10494 Honeymooning, Honey, in Bombay "That Girl" Quartet Female voices, orchestra accompaniment. The first Edison Record by "That Girl" Quartet, a well-known organization, very successful in vaudeville and at high class concerts. Their repertoire includes both standard and popular numbers, of which latter this song with its sparkling, lilting melody is a prime favorite. The voices of the Quartet — 1st and 2nd sopranos, contralto and alto — are finely balanced, and the result in this instance is a Record which will be appreciated as much for its musical qualities as for the novelty of the organization. Words and music, Dave Reed; publishers, M. Witmark & Sons, New York City. 10495 On Mobile Bay Oakland Quartet Male voices, orchestra accompaniment. With this dainty little song, whose chief recommendation is its contagious tunefulness, is presented a new combination of voices. The new quartet comprises counter-tenor (Will Oakland), 1st tenor, 1st and 2nd bass. It will be seen from the harmonious rendition given this number that the voices of the singers are nicely balanced, and more Records, we are convinced, will be demanded from the same source.
