Very first klezmer recordings

As the KI dissertation seems over (for a moment), I ask my question again:

At a lecture on klezmer history I gave recently at a Talmud Tora in Geneva,
a boy asked me about the very first klezmer tunes ever recorded.

I wasn't able to answer precisely. Was it Mihal Viteazul' Doina & Sirba
(1905)? H.Steiner's Potpourri of Jewish Melodies (1908)? some Belf's (ca
1912)?

Thanks for helping.

Michal
