He took the Scala Orchestra to the United States on a concert tour in 1920-21; Toscanini made his first recordings for the Victor Talking Machine Company

Arturo Toscanini led the Orchestra for 17 years. Toscanini retired after his April 4, 1954, concert. Much to his distress, NBC laid the Orchestra off after that. Most of its members (with a few new players) reassembled as the "Symphony Of The Air", which went on to charter its own distinguished, if brief, path to fame. Symphony Of The Air" finally disbanded in 1963. Sites: bach-cantatas.
