  • This is beautiful..Kreisler plays with such a joyful heart it comes through on this "troublesome" number...

  • This was my firt Kreisler 78 and still my favorite. It's amazing how popular he is after a century.

  • If the label were the face of a clock, the take number would be at 9 o'clock.

  • It looks like on this record it appears at 3 and 9. This record is take 8. I looked at another older record and I don't see any numbers on it at those positions. I see the record number and what appears to be a K next to that number. Did they change this system for recording takes?

  • This arrangement was by Clarence Cameron White, wonderful black violinist that studied at Oberlin beginning of 20th century. A bit unusual for Kreisler to play someone else's arr. I'm playing this in church for Black History Month.

  • This is a recording of one movement of Bandana Sketches by Clarence Cameron White. All four movements are beautiful treatments of spirituals.

  • Beautiful!

  • wow, this is nice! i like it.

  • @restring008 This was probably recorded at about 78rpm since it was one of my earlier posts. I now try to record them at 76.59rpm if it is a Victor.

  • WHO CARES ABOUT PITCH AND FREQUENCY ? JUST SIT BACK, CLOSE YOUR EYES AND LISTEN TO THIS BEAUTIFUL MUSIC.

  • @NamronSeven Keep in mind most acoustic-era Victor records were recorded between 74-76 r.p.m. so when played back on a modern turntable at 78.26 r.p.m. they will be 1/4 - 1/2-tone sharp.

  • You don't hear this kind of playing anymore. None of the great violinist of today come close to a performance like this.

  • What a rare treasure!!!! I like to play this music.

  • @micromilesaway

    Sorry for the late comment! But I would never have thought that Kreisler covered this piece. Who would have imagined? Thanks to Pax41 for posting. It's amazing.

    Anyway. Probably Baroque pitch rather than today's Concert pitch, so is probably lower frequency rather than higher. It has a much warmer sound than modern orchestras.
