But can you? In the Opera House corridor scene in “The Pit,” at Ye Liberty Theatre, Oakland, Cal., the famous quartet from Rigoletto was sung by Caruso, Abbott, Homer and Scotti on the Victor, and the delighted audience thought they were listening to the singers themselves. At Rector’s, the noted Chicago Restaur- ant, when some of the grand opera stars sang, with piano accompaniment, the diners listened with rapt attention and craned their necks to get a glimpse of the singegs. But it was a Victor. In the rotunda of Wanamaker’s famous Philadelphia store the great pipe organ ac companied Melba on the Victor, and the peo ple rushed from all directions to see the singer. Even in the Victor laboratory employes often imagine they are listening to a singer making a record while they really hear the Victor. ; You owe it to yourself to investigate the possibilities of this wonderful musical in- strument.
