RCA Victor (1910)

VICTOR RED SEAL RECORDS 79 Fourteen Records by MISCHA ELMAN This young Russian violinist is quite the sensation of the day, and has attained artistic heights that would seem impossible to one so young. Elman is a positive genius and cannot be classed as a mere prodigy, though it cannot be denied that such phenomenal powers are more interest¬ ing because of his youth. London and Berlin critics were absolutely amazed at this young virtuoso's maturity and independence of con¬ ception, his superb command of violin and bow and his marvelous delivery; and Elman's American tour has demonstrated that these critics were right when they declared that for sheer genius this amazing boy has never been equaled, and that his mastery over the technic of violin playing is as perfect as that of any virtuoso of the time. . ... i • , • Elman has just signed a new agreement, which gives the Victor the sole right to issue Elman records for a further term of years. Following the settlement of this important contract, Mr. Elman made new records of seven of the selections already listed, and played several new numbers, four of which are now presented. The new Elman records are a revelation of the great possibilities of the Victor ’s new recording process. The beautiful tone, reproducing perfectly Elman ’s playing, the smooth¬ ness of the records and the absence of any mechanical imperfections are delightful to note.
