Records appropriate to Holy Week are
In great favor this week, and II is really
remarkable how wide selection of both
vocal and instrumental music. apparently
made especially for this season, one can
get. The sacred cantatas, particularly
the "Elijah," which was sung here last
week by the Choral Society, and "The
Messiah" sung here earlier In the season,
provide number OF splendid records.

Creatore's Band, Is listed by the Columbia

Victor Company, the "lngemisco" from
Nerdi's REQUIEM" sung by Enrico Ca

Odd instruments
People do not always realize how their
interests can be extended, with pleasure,
too. by the use of a phonograph. The
industry is so far developed that yon can
get records in any language from Turk

various companies making records find IL
agreeable to exploit odd instruments.
