Artists

Album Info

Release Date: 1983

Label: CBS

Previously released on MS 6016 (Grieg), MS 6778 (Saint-Saëns), MG 32050, MS 7505 (Grieg).

Producer credits are not clearly attributed on this release, despite the two pieces originating on two separate original releases. More research is required.

Pressed at Columbia, New York ("COLUMBIA NY" stamped in runout).

From the sleeve: "Re-mixed and re-mastered from original tapes, using the Dobby System..."

If still in original plastic outer wrap, the release may bear a red rectangular hype sticker stating: "Latest Release in the "Great Performances" Series" (see photo).

Original inner sleeve on submitted copy is plastic-lined windowed paper sleeve typical of the 1981 and 1982 releases, rather than advertisement / proof-of-purchase paper inner sleeve characteristic of most of the 1983 Great Performances releases.

Although containing the second and third movements of the Grieg concerto, Track A2 is not physically divided on the LP, and the timing reflects the total for both the second and third movements as given on the label.
