Decca LX 3107 10" 1953 LP/matrices: DRL1209 -2A / DRL1210 -2A / Decca ECS 816 STEREO (electronic **) 1978 LP/matrices: EAL12707 -1G / EAL12708 -1G
Recorded: 8/9 April 1952 & Oct./Nov.1954 - Victoria Hall, Geneva (The 1952 recordings were re-issued 1957 as Decca/London LL 1324 - no LXT release)
'Mallarme' + Faure are single-channel from the electronic-stereo. Liederkreis LX 3107 additionally auto-de-clicked after vast effort (the surfaces, whilst appearing mint, were stunningly noisy due to inferior matrix processing: now just a subdued trace of 'hash' at side-ends (and sounding superior to Mr Pristine's effort !! mp3 sample - second part is Liederkreis)
October 2016: 24/96 files converted to 24/48 - slight (1.5dB) treble added to 'Liederkreis' - a few ticks removed from 'Sheherazade'..
