Kurtz/NYPSO recording date for Villa-Lobos: Uirapiru
Recorded October 4, 1949. Issued on Columbia ML 4255 in January, 1950. No
other releases cited.
This comes from an NYPSO discography, apparenty in-house, that was sent to
a late friend by someone at the Philharmonic around 1967.
James H. North did a Philharmonic discography (of the commercially-released
recordings only) published last year by The Scarecrow Press. I can't now find
it.

Nope, it's the Columbia LP. It had to be recorded in 4 parts (as if for 78
issue) because of audible "side breaks" and one helluva pitch drop at the 12
minute mark. (Only other recording I know of was on Everest..Goossens?)My date for the recording is Oct 4, 1949, from my old Philharmonic research.
If it's a broadcast, it's Stokowski.

Does anyone have the recording date for Efrem Kurtz & the New York Philharmonic's UIRAPURU (Villa-Lobos), Columbia ML 4255? No 78 issue, but that doesn't mean they might not have had it in the can from 1947 or 1949.
And how on earth did Columbia let it out with that burst of static from 1:22 to 1:30? (Duh..it's modern music..nobody'll notice..)
