Recorded January 21, 1936 at Studio Albert, Paris.

The Praeludium and Allegro, composed by Fritz Kreisler during his long and prestigious career is considered one of the great standards of violin music. The Kreisler Praeludium and Allegro was one of the many violin pieces the composer attributed to lesser known composers of the 18th Century, even though they were his own works. This particular violin composition was originally attributed to Pugnani (and is shown as such on records of the 78 rpm era), and is often interpreted as a very Romantic homage to a Baroque Italian virtuoso.
