[78-L] Victor Herbert plays Mendelssohn..Mendelssohn loses

[David Lennick]

Universal Zonophone C 5110, "Spring Song", played by Victor Herbert's Band who 
sound as if they've never played it or any other piece before. Ghastly. But 
amazingly well recorded for what, 1902? Ty has this listed as "Band" but it's 
labelled and announced as Herbert.

What key do we like for this? Sounds good in A to me, which is down about 2.8% 
from 78. Professor Carli?
