Because Brunswick was headquartered in Chicago, it was long assumed that the recordings were made there, perhaps with the Chicago Symphony appearing under a \u003cem\u003enom de disque\u003c\/em\u003e for contractual reasons. However, Ross Laird’s Brunswick exhaustive Brunswick discography places the recording venue in New York City. As Strauss’s appearances there in December, 1921 were with Walter Damrosch’s New York Symphony, that may well have been the anonymous ensemble heard here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body\"\u003eThe noisier, more distant sound of the Brunswick \u003cem\u003eSalome\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eDance\u003c\/em\u003e is indicative of a Pantographic dubbing, which may have been made to bring the playback speed up to 78.3 rpm. (The \u003cem\u003eBourgeois Gentilhomme\u003c\/em\u003e disc, recorded at the same session, plays at a lower speed; it is not clear why this, too, wasn’t dubbed.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body\"\u003eThe following month saw Strauss in London, making his first British recordings for Columbia with the LSO. A photograph taken during the recording session shows that horn-amplified Stroh violins were not used, which may account for the distant balance of the strings on these discs. Columbia apparently enforced a four-minute limit on 12-inch sides at this time, which required cuts in \u003cem\u003eDon Juan\u003c\/em\u003e (on Side 2) and in the Otto Singer arrangement of \u003cem\u003eRosenkavalier Waltzes\u003c\/em\u003e. The take of the second side of the waltzes presented here appears to be different from the one listed in the Peter Morse Strauss discography and the Ronald Taylor Columbia discography, both of which show Take 2 published for this side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body\"\u003eFour years later, Strauss returned to London to conduct the Tivoli cinema theatre orchestra for the first showing of a silent film adaptation of \u003cem\u003eDer Rosenkavalier\u003c\/em\u003e. The following day, HMV began recording excerpts from the orchestral arrangement (made by Singer and Karl Alwin) in Queen’s Hall, with the ensemble augmented by additional players, either free-lancers or members of other London orchestras. HMV had been using the new electrical recording technology for a year, but had only recently begun employing it in large halls, rather than in small recording studios, and the results remain astonishingly vivid for this early date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body\"\u003eThe sequence of the originally-issued discs placed the side with the \u003cem\u003ePresentation March\u003c\/em\u003e at the end of the suite, which made little dramatic sense but allowed purchasers to buy the \u003cem\u003eTrio and Finale\u003c\/em\u003e side as a separate single disc. In this transfer, the sides have been presented in the order they were recorded, irrespective of their place in the opera, except for the \u003cem\u003eIntroduction to Act I \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003cem\u003eMarschallin’s Monologue\u003c\/em\u003e sides, which were recorded last. (The \u003cem\u003ePresentation March\u003c\/em\u003e was an earlier composition of Strauss’s which the composer interpolated into the film music for a scene in which the Feldmarschall appears; it does not appear in the original opera.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body\"\u003eThe sources for the transfers were American Brunswicks and English Columbias for the acoustics, and a mixture of the best portions of British, German, French and American pressings for the \u003cem\u003eRosenkavalier\u003c\/em\u003e Suite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMark Obert-Thorn\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_download_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample3_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample4_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample5_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample6_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_labelfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5fFull Track Listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_typefb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5ftrack_listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_contentfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"body\"\u003eR STRAUSS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"body\"\u003e The Complete British \u0026amp; American Recordings, 1922-26\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"body\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"body\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"bodysmallarial\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bodybigblue\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLe Bourgeois Gentilhomme\u003c\/strong\u003e: Suite, Op. 60\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan class=\"body\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinuet of Lully\u003c\/strong\u003e (3:21)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePrelude to Act II (Intermezzo) \u003c\/strong\u003e(3:24)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eSymphony Orchestra\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Recorded in New York City, December, 1921\u003cbr\u003e Matrix nos.: 7005 and 7007.
