This CD plays many excellent recordings from the era of 78s, beautifully transferred by David Michell, and with a subtle hint of 'Enhanced Stereo' added. Sadly, no details are given of the original 78s from which these tracks are transcribed, dates of recording, dates of release, or for the most part, of accompanists, orchestras and conductors. It's no use asking Shazam, they come up with wildly irrelevant nonsense.

Track 1 Sir Dan Godfrey conducting the Bournemouth Municipal Orchestra, Zampa Overture (parts 1 & 2) transcribed from Australian Columbia 02816


Track 2 Luisa Tetrazzini: HMV D.B.690, 1954 reissue of a 1913 acoustic recording


Track 3 Archie Camden, Allegro Spiritoso, orchestra conducted by Sir Hamilton Harty (knighted in 1925), 80 RPM 12” Shellac single Columbia L 1826, recorded 30 Mar 1926

And issued in the USA on Columbia 67330D (1927) YouTube

Track 4 Heidenröslein (Hedge Roses), Alexander Kipnis with Roger Moore who is not mentioned here, unknown 78 (Recorded 1936


Track 5 Alfredo Campoli with pianist Harold Pedlar unknown 78


Track 6 Hallé Orchestra, Hamilton Harty Cossack Dance can be seen on Australian Columbia LOX-181

or USA Columbia Masterworks 9076-M

Track 7 Peter Dawson, Why Do The Nations (so furiously rage together)? from Handel's Messiah
C.2694

Track 8 Greensleeves, by the Dolmetsch family Columbia DB 1062

Track 9 London Symphony Orchestra, Geoffrey Toye, On Hearing The First Cuckoo In Spring
HMV 4270

Track 10 Dance Duet From Hansel And Gretel
Columbia 9909

Track 11 "Dame" Myra Hess - Jesu, Joy Of Man`s Desiring: the notes refer to "Dame" Muyra playing a series of concerts in London, which could make this the 1940 recording on
HMV B.9035
This is a more sprightly rendition than the earlier recording, in keeping with her intention to support British morale during the War. There is no posting of this on YT, all there being the slow, lugubrious performance.

Track 12 Hans Pfitzner's performance of Joseph Lanner's Pesther Waltz


Track 13 Siegfried Ochs - Ein Albumblatt: Typo: the arranger is Wilhemj rather than Wilhelms. Not on 78Cat or YT

Track 14 Lawrence Tibbett - Largo Al Factotum, with uncredited orchestra
D.B. 1478

Track 15 Alfred Cortot Ballade No.1
HMV D.B.1343

Track 16 Cortot, Thibaud, Casals - Haydn Trio In G Major
D.A. 895

Track 17 Richard Tauber - Roses Of Picardy: Parlphone R.O. 20316, 1936
Typo: the arranger is Wilhemj rather than Wilhelms

Track 18 Massed Bands - "Tannhauser" March, cond. John Henry IIles
HMV B.8245 (not on YT)
