Victor records (Nov 1915)

VICTOR RECORDS "Number | BIRD ‘SONG RECORDS—Actual Songs of Birds in the Ae intya of Karl Reich, of Bremen Nature-lovers throughout the world will rejoice in the Victor announcement of new reproductions of the actual notes of the loveliest of bird singers—the thrush, nightingale and sprosser or “field nightmgale.”’ The Victor's first nightingale record created a sensation, and has had a tremendous vogue. Encouraged by the success of this record, further experiments were made, resulting in greatly improved methoda of recording bird voices. Not only have new nightingale records been made, but the song of the thrush, sprosser and canary have been recorded. The thrush has a lovely song, and will rival the nightingale in popularity. The sprosser’s song is more rhythmic than the nightingale proper, and of greater volume. ACTUAL BIRD SONGS Song of a Nightingale : 64161)/10{1.
