Insuch musical magnificence this orchestra is perfect. But probably the greatest achievement in this first Cincinnati Orchestrarecord is the reproduction of the violin choir in Delibes ballet, this ballet—the Ballet Beautiful—is a string tone excelled by no or-chestra before the public to-day, caught in every perfection on theOrchestras Columbia recordings. !THE TRIUMPHAL ENTRY OF THE BOJAREN. (Halvorsen.)Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. Under the direction ofDr. Ernst BALLET NO. 2. (Delibes.) WALTZ OF THEHOURS. Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. Under the direc-tion of Dr. Ernst t^MLM>.. Sextette N June 22, 1 846, Antoine Joseph Sax registered inV_>/ Paris the first patent on his Saxophone. Seventyyears later finds the saxophone one of the most popu-lar musical instruments before the public. The entire saxo-phone family covers soprano, alto, tenor, melody, baritone,bass and contra bass units with a collective compass of overfour octaves. The instruments run from 2 to 5/4 feet longand are constructed of light metal. The fingering of the saxo-phone is practically the same as the flute and oboe. The toneis a composite of many of the orchestral colors in unison. As a unit of a band or in solo work, the saxophone is equal-ly effective, but the Saxo Sextette—six solo saxophonists—shows the instrument at its very best. Their Columbia recordsare sensational in their tone perfection. BULL FROG BLUES. phone Sextette. SWANEE RIPPLES. Sextette. (Brown-Shirley.) Saxo Sextette. Saxo-(Blaufuss.) Saxo Sextette.
