About:
The voice of his master, known out of France under the name Hist Master's Voice (abridged in HMV), is a label of international music of British origin, historically in the EMI group, also in the Sony Music Entertainment group for America northern since the 2000s.
Due to this diversity of owners, this label has not been used internationally since the 1990s.
The HMV brand is also that of a retailer of cultural goods (records, books) in a few countries, who started bankrupt at the end of 2018.
The voice of his master was also in France, from the 1950s, a brand of the company Pathé-Marconi for the marketing of audiovisual equipment: Tourne-Disques, radio and television stations.
The name His Master's Voice (in French, the voice of his master) is, originally, the title of a painting of 1898-1899 painted by Francis Barraud and representing a dog in the Jack Russell Terrier race, baptized Nipper listening at the pavilion of a cylinder phonograph. This model of a rare type operating in electricity was known as "Edison-Bell phonographer", and was produced by the Thomas Edison factory for the British market alone.
In 1931, the EMI group was created which recovered the assets of the Gramophone Company including the Hist Master’s Voice (HMV) brand. In 1936, EMI created in France the subsidiary Pathé-Marconi and translated according to the country the brand on its HMV logotype, which gives the voice of its master for French-speaking countries.
Pathé-Marconi is often associated with the slogan "The voice of his master" because since 1936, until the mid-1990s, there is a label of vinyl records, the musical and electric industries Pathé Marconi renamed in 1972 Pathoni Emi. This music label is published by EMI.
In the early 1950s, during the appearance of microsillons and during the simultaneous decrease in the production of the 78 laps, the label with the image of the dog Nipper was maintained, but by replacing the entitled Disput Gramophone, by the brand's wording: in English His Master's Voice (sometimes abbreviated in HMV), in French the voice of his master, in Spanish La Voz de Su Amo, and in Italian the Voce del Padrone.
In the early 1970s, the appellation became "EMI - the voice of its master", and the label on microsillons representing the dog nipper in front of the pavilion was reduced in a smaller rectangle.
This image of the dog Nipper is given in the spotlight in large on the labels "the voice of his master" in the mid -1980s.
But in 1990, the label took the name of "Emi France" and thus abandoned any reference to Pathé-Marconi and, in the mid-1990s, in Great Britain, the HMV label was no longer used by EMI, and C ' is the EMI Classics label which takes over.
