Об исполнителе:
American harpist, composer, and conductor, born in 1901 and died in 1990. Brother of harpist Joseph Vito and father of harpists Annette Vito and Elaine Vito Ricci. At the age of fifteen, he was a full-fledged member of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. He is associated with conductor Arturo Toscanini and the NBC Symphony, for which he became manager of at its inception in 1937 and remained with it for at least the next 15 years. The harp sounds on all Toscanini's records with the NBC Symphony are exclusively his. From a American Record Guide review of "Harp Recital" recorded by Period on SPL-704, "He is an elegant performer who can conjure tones that have the liquid purity of flowing water in a brook, an exquisite legato and poetic feeling."
