& „Gold Rush“ Premiere Set for Coast

      CHARLEY CHAPLIN‘S latest comedy, The Gold Rush

is scheduled for a gala opening in The Egyptian

Theatre, Hollywood, on June 27th, with Chaplin as the

guest of honor. (...)

      Chaplin has completed an exploitation tie-up with the

Brunswick phonograph people which should be

effective for exhibitors. While completing the picture

he also took time to arrange the musical score

and to write several of the compositions. Two of these

he recently recorded for the Brunswick records,

playing the violin solo himself and conducting the Lyman

Cocoanut Grove orchestra at Los Angeles.

The compositions are entitled „Sing a Song“ and „With

You, Dear, in Bombay.“ These records will soon

be on sale by the company‘s dealers throughout the world.

This violin being his hobby

Editorial content. „CHAPLIN‘S VIOLIN DISK

Charlie Chaplin makes his debut as a phonograph

recording artist on the Brunswick label with

a violin solo, played as part of Abe Lyman‘s dance version

of With You Dear in Bombay, a new song written

and composed by the screen comedian. Chaplin is an

accomplished musician, this violin being his hobby.

It was through Abe Lyman‘s urging that Chaplin elaborated on

one of his many extempore themes for commercial

purposes, M. Witmark & Sons publishing the number which

will be tied up with Chaplin‘s The Gold Rush,

his forthcoming release.

     The Gold Rush opens June 26, 1925

      at Grauman‘s Egyptian, 6712 Hollywood Bld., Los Angeles.
