NOTE TO LISTENER
This performance was recorded live on mono 7 ½ Ampex reel-to-reel tape, using a battery powered portable Grundig TK-1. The tape, despite having remained unplayed for almost 60 years, had conservation deficiencies inherent to its age. For its release, the original sound has been restored employing the most advanced techniques and carefully 24-bit digitally mastered, in order to obtain the highest possible quality and fidelity, to provide the greatest pleasure to the listener.
