VICTOR RECORDS | Rumber | | PIETRO (PIETRO DEIRO), Accordionist To say that the Victor’s Pietro records have made a “‘hit”’ is putting it but mildly, and that much-abused word “‘ furore’” might even be used. That no such accordion playing has ever been reproduced on records is the universal opinion of customers who have heard the fine numbers already issued. The first accordion was manufactured in Vienna about 1829, and soon became very popular throughout Europe. It was a very simple affair, howoT compared to Pietro’s instrument, which has an elaborate keyboard with hundreds eys. The overtures especially have caused a sensation, and they give one an idea of the wonderful instrument used by Pietro—which he calls a “‘ piano-accordion.” It might be called also a full military band and an orchestra, judging by the effects produced. Pursuing its usual policy of always giving Victor customers the best, Pietro, being the greatest accordionist in the world, has been engaged to make Victor records exclusively.
