Sir Edward Elgar / Daniel Barenboim, The London Philharmonic Orchestra
Enigma Variations / Pomp & Circumstance Marches Nos. 1 - 5
Album US 1983 on CBS label
Classical and Brass (Neo-Romantic, March)
Previously released on M 32936, M 34530. ℗ 1974, 1976, CBS Inc. Also released on cassette (MYT 38483) in 1983 (noted on inner sleeve) and compact disc (MYK 38483) in 1985. From the sleeve: "Re-mixed and re-mastered from original tapes, using the Dolby System..." Original inner sleeve is two-sided advertisement / proof-of-purchase for the CBS Great Performances series, with pictures of the first twenty-five releases on one side (although the pictures do not accurately reproduce the sleeves), and a list of the remaining seventy-five on the other (see photos). Track timings as given on the label for side B, vary slightly from the CD version, either shorter or faster by 1-2 seconds. Individual track timings and titles are not given for the Enigma Variations (although identifications of the figures about whom Elgar was writing are provided in the notes), nor is there a clear division on the vinyl surface itself (the Variations run more-or-less continuously), but times are retained from the CD version source for clarity.
