Notes
Symphony recorded 7 - 8 September 1956, Partita recorded 12 - 13 November 1956, both in Kingsway Hall, London.Australian WRC 1st pressing on green 'strobe' label, sourced from original stampers and featuring unique sleeve art. The full-colour art was changed to a cheaper two-tone design in later pressings. Mono and stereo versions have same number on back of sleeve (T/4126) - the mono version has "T-4126" on beige 'strobe' label, while the stereo has "ST-4126" on green 'strobe' label. The stereo version has a printed "stereo" rosette on the back, and the mono has a red sticker with "mono" placed over this (though these tend to drop off with age).
