Fred Gaisberg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (572 words)
Fred Gaisberg (born, New York 1873 - died: England 1951) was the first of the three great classical producers for the gramophone.
With Bernard Shaw, the BBC and others Gaisberg was partly responsible for persuading Elgar to write a third symphony, though in the end the composer died leaving the sketches incomplete.
Gaisberg was the only record producer to record a castrato singer, and he was the first record producer to make discs in Japan, recording over 270 titles in one month of 1903.
