Subject: [ARSCLIST] Soviet Recordings


Hello,

I am trying to gather information on the early distribution of Soviet recordings in the US.

1.  What was the first recording of Soviet songs that was released in the US? (year?; label? 
contents?)

2.  I also am trying to find more information regarding subsequent distribution of recordings of 
Soviet songs in the US.  (Labels?; History?; Would the companies simply copy from eachother and 
resell under their respective labels?).  Based on my research in American and Russian-American 
papers, it appears that Stinson and the "Am-Rus Music Corporation" were the first distributors of 
these records - is this true?  Does anyone know anything else about this "Am-Rus" company?

3.  Could anyone tell me more about the "World's Fair" recording.  (Year?; Contents?; Performers?).

4.  Does anyone have any suggestions for sources about early Soviet recordigs in the US?

Thank you very much.

N. Zelensky
