Re: [ARSCLIST] Weingartner mystery

[David Hamiton <davidham@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The discography by Christopher Dyment in the liner notes for HMV RLS-717
("The Art of Felix Weingartner," 1975) lists it as LPO, with a footnote:
"Not the LSO. as stated on the UK record labels."  The discography is
described as "a condensed version of part of the discography appearing in
'Felix Weingartner: Recollections and Recordings,' to be published by Triad
Press.  Acknowledgements of assistance in compiling the discography to the
British Inst. Of Recorded Sound, EMI Records and (the late) A.F.R. Lawrence
with CBS Records."

That's like Victor Borge's line: "The Steinway people have asked me to
announce
that this is a Baldwin piano."

I know there was a mention of its being misattributed somewhere, possibly in
the Weingartner discography in the HMV box set (early 70s) which is away
from
me at the moment. Reason I ask is that I did the Weingartner Brahms set for
Living Era Classics last year and THOUGHT I'd listed everything correctly,
but
a purchaser has written saying we've goofed (either that or he has).
