Great early recording by the ROYAL MARINE BAND of Italy Around the turn of the century, Ferruccio Giannini, an operatic tenor and impresarioimported sixty Musicians from Italy to form the Royal Marine Band of Italy, with which he was the tenor soloist. The man he brought over to conduct the band was Giuseppe Creatore whose successful career in American band music started with Giannini's Band. The band played at Young's Pier, the Steel Pier in Atlantic City and other major East Coast venues.Not much is known about Edith Merrilees - she recorded 4 sides with the Royal Marine Band on Victor in 1904Edith Merrilees and Ferruccio Giannini sing the Miserere from "Il Trovatore," accompanied by the Royal Italian Marine Band, on Victor Monarch 4092, recorded 24 September 1904.

If for any reason your transaction was NOT SATISFACTORY, pls contact me and I will work something out with you. YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A REASON TO GIVE ME A NEGATIVE RATING or a LOW STAR RATING. Quick note on grading: The Grade (Excellent to Poor, I don't give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise."EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET" is close to noiseless, like a vinyl pressing."VERY QUIET" is an above average quiet record for a given pressing."Quiet" is a record that is a great example with some noise. These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment. Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.
