| Juke Jules SUBS 17th Sep 2022 | You lose me at times, Whypie - I guess Kettle Betty is the composer, not so sure about Wilson... | |
| Whyperion SUBS 17th Sep 2022 | Question is where are Wilson, Keppel and Betty ? | |
| Gill Sans SUBS 17th Sep 2022 | Thanks, my misreading, but I stand by my conclusion about the speed. | |
| scrough 17th Sep 2022 | Hate to disagree, but the text after the matrix is 'Characteristic Piece' not Pitch. | |
| Gill Sans SUBS 17th Sep 2022 | The matrix numbers are followed by "Characteristic Pitch" on the labels. This would have been helpful in setting the correct playback speed on the wind-up gramophones of the time against your own piano or tuning fork, but raises the question about the prevailing pitch system. In A Persian Market was written in D minor, and at this time French standard of A= 435 Hz was in general use. From 1936, the American Standards Association defined Concert Pitch A = 440Hz. The video above has got the pitch about right, at about a semitone lower than modern Concert pitch. If one assumes the phonograph has been set for 78RPM, then we can presume that these Winner and Edison Bell series were recorded at a nominal 78RPM. Other labels also showed the key signature in preference to the speed, including some early HMV records, like 03156 | |
