Recorded November 1922
Brunswick 2356
The Oriole Orchestra was directed by Ted Fiorito and Danny Russo and performed originally at the Oriole Terrace Gardens in Detroit and then at the Edgewater Beach Hotel in Chicago, where they did their first radio remote broadcast on March 29, 1924. Russo usually directed the orchestra and played violin while Fiorito played the piano and was "coach" for the orchestra. In August 1925, the Russo-Fiorito orchestra opened Chicago's new Uptown Theatre. They opened the famous Aragon Ballroom in July 1926, doing radio remotes nationally from both the Aragon and the Trianon ballrooms. Dan Russo left the band in 1928, and Fiorito took over as leader, touring the Midwest with engagements in St. Louis, Kansas City and Cincinnati.
