THE MUSIC GOES ROUND

A prime mover in the field of musical recording, ever since its start from a zinc disc some fifty years ago, Fred Gaisberg has traveled and worked on an international scale to build up classical music libraries. Starting as the impressario of Red Seal records, later the chief recorder at the British end of Victor records, Gaisberg has known almost all of the contemporary musicians of the 20th century. Here, informally, he talks of stars in the musical world. Not distinctive writing, but good human interest impressions of musical celebrities, from Patti and Caruso to Grace Moore.
