Eben Howe Bailey's "Until We Meet Again" by Issler's Orchestra - 1890s brown wax cylinder record
From http://www.library.ucsb.edu/OBJID/Cyl... - many of these quaint "parlor music" pieces, forerunners of "palm court" salon music styles later, were proliferating in the 1880s and were in the minds of recording company managers in the 1890s, when the industry was new. Composers like Eben H. Bailey were prolific in churning out these sorts of pieces, many of which fell rapidly into obscurity and only resurfaced in antique sheet music libraries once scanned...
Around that time, Edward Issler was a busy theater and salon-orchestra pianist in the Newark, NJ area, in the process of organizing an ensemble. By 1889, he was invited to make some of the first-ever piano recordings at Thomas Edison's West Orange laboratory. He soon invited his associates to make ensemble records, and Issler's Orchestra became the first studio orchestra, recordings thousands of wax cylinder records until about 1900.
It sounds like recording pioneer Len Spencer is announcing here, with Issler on piano, George Schweinfest on piccolo/flute, William Tuson on clarinet, David B. Dana on cornet, and perhaps Leo Zimmerman on trombone.
This cylinder was probably recorded around 1894-1896 by the United States Phonograph Company in Newark, NJ. It's not an exact year since this title was probably re-recorded multiple times to meet demand. The style here is in line with the thousands of cylinders produced under Issler in the mid-1890s, with the 5-7 piece sound, Len Spencer announcing [the "played by...Issler's Orchestra" hallmark especially], and light music selection.
