Notes:
- This performance of “Sheherazade” was first issued on Columbia ML-4888 in 1954.
- This Philips album appears to have been first released in 1955, see this review on Delpher (June 4, 1955). The album shown is probably from a later date, as it shows the text “All Philips records are high fidelity records!” at the bottom of the back cover (1956 or later).
- In 1957 Philips released “Sheherazade” again as part of the Favourites Series (S 04628 L). This album also features “Capriccio Espagnol Op. 34” which is missing on N 02112 L (it’s not a part of “Sheherazade”).
