    Old OLD recordings

    I am looking for recordings of the earliest variety of wind bands and euphonium. In particular I am looking for an early recording of Second Suite in F major by Holst. Any info? Think early to mid 1900s.

    Have you tried YouTube? I find many old recordings in a variety of genres that people have posted when I need to look up something for either pleasure or performance preparation.

      Maybe you can found it in the National Archives of your state ?

      It seems you have to search in the U.K.

        Good luck on this! It could be interesting to hear a style closer to when the suite was written. The oldest recording I've heard myself is the Eastman Wind Ensemble from the 1960's. I could suggest reaching out to the USA military bands for starters. Also, there must be a good source in Great Britain for archive recordings.
