Borowsky Plays Liszt

~ Release by Liszt; Borovsky (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

“All titles were recorded for French/German Polydor but were later released on British Decca, whose pressings were used in the preparation of this reissue. Destruction of information occasioned by the Second World War has made precise dating impossible. It can however be stated with certainty that all the Liszt Rhapsodies had been released in Britain by 1939 and that the matrix numbers of the records reissued in this anthology indicate dates of 1937 for the Rhapsodies, 1938 for the other Liszt recording and the Bach Concerti, and 1935 for the Bach/Liszt.”
