Abstract

My article strives to study phonography in Portugal between the 1900 recording sessions for The Gramophone Company and the company’s first significant Portuguese catalogue, printed in December 1908. I aim to trace the transformations undertaken in the discs and repertoires along with their segmentation during the first decade of Portuguese phonography, with the establishment of a phonographic market in the country.
