BERLINER GRAMOPHONE RECORDS: AMERICAN ISSUES, 1892-1900 By Paul Charosh. Condition is "New" Hard Cover!. Shipped Free with USPS Media Mail. About this productProduct InformationJust over 100 years ago, Emile Berliner invented the gramophone and disc record. This is the first discography assembled of the first disc recordings in the United States. It documents over 3,000 discs, which were sold to the American public from 1892 to 1900. Listings are arranged by catalogue number and cross-indexed by title, performer, and recording date. The gramophone discs are valuable research tools in the study of popular culture, providing objective data about what was offered to the public, and how it was performed. Since this information has never been published, scholars may well find new materials. Berliner's successor was the Victor Talking Machine Company (an ongoing Greenwood discography series). An introductory essay discusses the earliest years of the invention and the repertoire appearing on the discs. Their physical properties are noted and illustrated with photographs of the records. A descriptive bibliography guides readers to other books and articles of interest. Another section lists Berliner Gramophone records that have been reissued on long-playing and compact discs. This volume will be of interest to gramophone record collectors, record archives, and music libraries, as well as to scholars, music students, and buffs.Product IdentifiersPublisherABC-ClioISBN-100313292175ISBN-139780313292170eBay Product ID (ePID)122659Product Key FeaturesFormatHardcoverPublication Year1995LanguageEnglishDimensionsWeight21.3 OzWidth6.3in.Length9.4in.Additional Product FeaturesNumber of Volumes1 Vol.Dewey Edition20Table of ContentAcknowledgments Introduction: On the Gramophone Physical Description and Photographs User's Guide Listing of Block Series Numbers Listing of "Zero" Series Numbers American Berliner Gramophone Records on LP and CD Resources for Further Study Title Index Artist Index Recording Date Index Resources for Further Study Appendix: American Berliner Gramophone Records on LP and CDSeries Volume NumberVol. 60IllustratedYesDewey Decimal016.78026/6Age LevelCollege AudienceSeriesDiscographies: Association for Recorded Sound Collections Discographic Référence Ser.Copyright Date1995AuthorPaul CharoshNumber of Pages336 PagesVolume Number60Lc Classification NumberMl156Reviews"The work is primarily oriented toward the scholar of discography. ...all libraries with specialist music collections should concider acquiring it, principally on account of the historical significance of the data presented."
