Are you sure it's the same music? Columbia usually used further take numbers for additional takes rather than assigning a new matrix number.

Steve,
I'm sorry, I meant part VI not part IV. The title is "Triumphal March of the Devil."
The Stanford Archive has both takes: WLX-16080-2 and WAX-1608-1-A-F-1.
Yes, it's the same music according to the label. Maybe I should listen to it to be sure.
I don't have access to the equipment right now. I'll check later.


The matrix numbers for the complete set of recordings of the Soldier's Tale are WLX-1599 through 1602 and WLX-1607/ WLX-1608.

What Stanford has:
The records in Columbia album set M-184 include:
68123-D (WLX-1599-1/WLX-1600-1)
68124-D (WLX-1601-1/WLX-1602-2)
68125-D (WLX-1607-1/WLX-1608-2)
The individual records are:
LX-199 (WLX-1607-1/WLX-1608-2
and
LFX-263 (WLX-1599-1/WLX-1600-1)
LFX-264 (WLX-1601-1/WLX-1602-2)
LFX-265 (WLX-1607-1/WLX-1608-2)

and the variant take from album set MM-184 (record number 72291-D, sides 1/6; (WLX-1599-1/WAX-1608-1-A-F-1)

The researcher says, "According to the Stuart discography, the released takes for both WLX1602 and WLX1608 were second takes. Do you have an alternate take for side 4 (WLX1602-2)?"

We do not have the alternate take for WLX-1602-2.

I have a researcher who is looking for the alternate take to Columbia matrix WLX-1602-2, "part 4" of Stravinsky: Musique de l'Histoire du Soldat, conducted by the composer, which may have been released on any one of the following Columbia pressings.

Columbia 68124-D from set M-184
72293-D from set MM-184
LFX-264
LX-198
GQX-10673
LWX-26

The Archive of Recorded Sound at Stanford has the other alternate take to WLX-1608-2 (i.e. WAX-1608-1-A-F-1 on record number 72291-D in album MM-184) but not the alternate take for WLX-1602-2.

If anyone has this alternate take, please contact the researcher Michael Stanley <mstanle3@xxxxxxxxx>. Also, please post to the list for the enlightenment of all.
Thanks,
Aurora Perez
