Victor Herbert Melodies, Vol. 1 is a studio album featuring five 78 rpm phonograph records celebrating the music of Victor Herbert. The recordings were made in December 1938 by Decca Records, who were probably aware that a film called The Great Victor Herbert was being made by Paramount Pictures.[1] Victor Young and His Orchestra provided the musical accompaniment to all of the tracks.
