This was Columbia's answer to the Victor Salon Orch. Chaminade's Scarf Dance performed by the Columbia Symphony Orch. in 1928. conducted by Robert Hood Bowers. Bowers (1877-1941) was a conductor and composer of many songs and musical plays.
Thank you for sharing this very fine recording! Interesting to hear how the different companies tried to offer similar products to those of the main competitors.
Pas des écharpes, no 3 of the 5 Airs de Ballet, by Mme Cécile Chaminade (1857-1944). This was opus 37, from 1888.
I wonder what the 4 other morceaux were like.

Chaminade's original piano version played by Hans Barth on Victor (early electric) is a favorite of mine. What year is mine?
