A vintage 78 rpm shellac record on the Columbia label featuring the Edelweiss Yodlers, performing two traditional Swiss‑style yodel pieces: “Saanen (Skimming) Yodel” backed with “S’Malche (Milking) Yodel”. These lively, rural‑themed yodels capture the charm and character of early European folk recordings, pressed during a period when Columbia issued a wide range of international and novelty material. A distinctive and unusual addition for collectors of early folk, world‑music recordings or Columbia’s international series. A colourful and atmospheric example of pre‑war yodelling on 78 rpm.
Artist & Label Notes
The Edelweiss Yodlers were part of a wave of early 20th‑century folk performers whose recordings introduced Alpine yodelling to international audiences. Labels such as Columbia issued many of these discs, often pairing lively dance or pastoral themes with traditional vocal techniques. Today, these records appeal to collectors of niche genres, regional folk traditions and early world‑music releases.
