Electric Recordings with All American (Youth) Orchestra
(1940-1941) 
Stokowski had founded the All American Youth Orchestra in 1940. They had planned South America Tour
in summer of 1940. Stokowski went to RCA-Victor to get sponsership from them. But RCA have sponsership
to Toscanini and NBC Symphony's South American Tour and they didn't agree sponsership to AAYO. Then,
Stokowski wane to Columbia records/US and Stokowski ask their interest. Columbia agreed give them sponsership
with exclusive recording agreement with AAYO.

After first Tour in summer of 1940, They had started recording. Colimbia wanted to get more market shere of
classical music record business. So, They recorded several musics which were best sellerd with Philadelphia
Orchestra. New World Symphony, Firebird Suite, Unfinished Symphony, Boris Godunov and his own Bach
transcriptions, hungarian rhapsody No.2 and many more.

However, due to bigin of World War 2, most of these records had market US only. In Japan, only New World
Symphony was released in 1941, which was very poor quality cause Columbia/Japan could not use high quality
sherack to make their records.

AAYO was end in after 2nd tour in 1941. They had only 2 years.
