From Discogs concerning the World's Greatest Music record label: "This U.S. label was produced by an unknown manufacturer for Music Appreciation Products, Inc. Several label varieties were produced, starting in 1938..."
Mainspring Press published an article in 2017 identifying the artists and conductors used by RCA Victor to record these pieces. A link to where the article can be found is https://78records.wordpress.com/2017/10/11/new-%E2%80%A2-the-worlds-greatest-music-discography-rca-victor-series-revised-expanded-by-john-bolig. The conductor for this recording is Arthur Rodzinski, in case you were wondering. Also, my set is incomplete, as I am missing the last of the five records containing parts nine and ten. Thus, movement four is not included in this video. The trouble with incomplete 78 rpm record sets is how seldom individual records from a specific set of interest are sold piecemeal. But, when they are, often the seller(s) think they are selling something rare and valuable, thus charging an unreasonably high price for their wares. The worst part about overpricers is they are typically very difficult to talk down to the realm of reason, as far as what is a truly fair price for their record is concerned. This is especially true when a budget release of niche interest is on the table. Who cares so much about a Royale Concert Orchestra release to the point they would shell out fifty dollars? The answer is simple, no one. I will get off my soapbox now.
