BRUNSWICK RECORDS

ARTISTIC comunions of Brunswick Phonographs.

These Records are made under the direction of great interpretersen who have the power and faculty of developing musical selections as they would be played by the composers.

Just as there are directors for the opera, the stage." the on hestra, we now have directors for records.

This means that each Brunswick Record is not only the work of some accomplished artist but is accom. panied by the shadings of a renowned diretor.

This is why Brunswick Records rise above the qualities most records have in common. Brunswicks are more than title and arist. They bear the impress of aome guiding hand. One who knows how to bring out the inherent qualities, the bidden beauty, the magnetic presonality, the mare, spiritual intuitions of composers.

the

Ask to hear these records. They will play on any phonograph with steel or fibre needies. Made by the House of Brunswick-a name renowned in the world of music. Compare Brunswick Records with others. Be their sole judge! Lok for something entirely different -something sweeter, richer, truer! You'll find it in full measure in the new Brunswick dise!
