Sounds of my Grandparents Era
Tango (Op. 165, No. 2) by Isaac Albéniz performed by violinist, Fritz Kreisler, accompanied by Carl Lamson, pianist. Recorded by Victrola on February 1929 and released on Victrola 1339-A 78 RPM 10 inch Record. Played on a Victrola Talking Machine with a Tungs-Tone Stylus. Videography by Dane C. Sorensen.
There are probably far better sounding recordings of this, but this video gives you an idea what an average persons in the 1920s would have been able to listen to on their home talking machine. This record belonged to my Grandparents - Frederick and Genevieve Robertson
