Re: [ARSCLIST] Thesaurus transcription wanted...

FWIW,
Somone has pencilled in the name " Joseph Mayseder" after the title
for" The Tempest".
Similarly, Offenbach (of course) has been pencilled in after La Belle
Helene Selections  and  " Zeller's Bird Seller " after" Song Of The
Roses"
  
Also after each title:
(:06-2 3/4 - 3:25)
( :07- 3 1/2 -2:00 )
( :06-3-3:10 )

I know you'd see all this  for yourself after the record made it to you
, but I thought you might find it interesting anyway.Nothing else of
note on the Symphony or Military Band side.

The content is:

Side 1 SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
a. The Tempest
b. La Belle Helene: Selections
c. Song of the Roses

Side 2 MILITARY BAND
h. Song to the People
j. Over The Waves
k. Naila

I suspect that track 'a',  "The Tempest" is really a piece by Joseph 
Hellmesberger (1828-1893).  The actual German title is Gewitterszene,
usually 
translated as Storm Scene.

The "Symphony Orchestra" may have been members of the NBC Symphony, and
they 
may have taken liberties with the original Hellmesberger score.

This piece may be one of many Thesaurus tracks that found it's way into
the 
stock mood music library prepared by Thesaurus for the Lone Ranger
radio show. 
  It has a "stagecoach chase" ambience which is a typical scene that
the show 
producers used it for.

The ultimate intent is to produce a multi CD set of ALL the music that
was used 
in this special library that was prepared for the Lone Ranger radio
show.  It 
has all been identified and written about in a book "The Mystery of the
Masked 
Man's Music" by my partner in this project, Reginald M. Jones Jr. and
published 
by Scarecrow Press of Metuchin N.J.  (ISBN 0-8108-1982-1)
