28 INSTRUMENTAL RECORDS WITH HARP
When the Victor Company, in 1906, issued the first instrumental records in which the harp (that most difficult of all problems to the recording experts) was used for the first time, something of a sensation was created, and these numbers have since been among the most popular in the catalogue. Several new records are now offered which are sure to be pronounced beautiful ones in every respect. Interesting arrangements of these old-time melodies have been made by Mr. Rogers, and the playing by the new instrumental combinations is most delicate and graceful. Mr. Lapitino, who assisted in the making of these new numbers, is one of New York’s most famous harpists.
