Re: [ARSCLIST] George Szell on Music Appreciation Records

[David Lennick <dlennick@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bit by bit, I'm beginning to figure out one of the MAR numbering systems. 579 
is the 9th album issued in 1957 (and 10579 is the ten-inch disc that 
accompanies it). Similarly, 573 is issue #3 for 1957, 5611 is the 11th issue 
for 1956 (or it could refer to the month of issue, which might be the same 
thing if they put out one album per month). 610 and 6225 and 26 don't fall into 
a pattern yet. (All are numbers of George Szell's MAR discs made in 1954 and 
1955 with the Cleveland Orchestra.)
