{ Notes on the booklet of this box set }
- Most of the informations of producer and engineer are noted as 'unknown'.
- Mozart K289(track 10 & 11 of CD 8); Performer information is largely wrong. I input the right names here, following HMV 7ER 5096.
- Haydn's Symphony no.31 'Horn Call'(track 9 of CD 8); Orchestra named is not written and only 'Symphony Orchestra' in this box.
