[78-L] Angel Records - EMI US, made in Canada 78rpm

[DAVID BURNHAM]

As Dave Lennick said, these are private recordings so they can contain any genre.  Most of the ones I've seen are from local church choirs but I've also seen a set by Frank Welsman, pianist, who was the first conductor of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra in the 1920s.
