Greetings,
Thanks for all these rare records.
Could you mention the source, whether it's a commercial reissue or your own from 78 or 33 rpm?
Rapidshare is nasty with non-paying members. What about megaupload or mediafire?
I'll be on the watch for more posts.
Melomaniacally yours

Thank you for your kind words. I'll look into those other upload site. Unfortunately, I haven't had much time for the blog. Oh yes, and the Capet recordings came from a '90s issue Japanese CD.

Thank your for uploading these exciting vintage records.

Does the owner of this blog want to hear the 1944 version of Op. 131with the Schneiderhan quartet to compare with this one?

Yes! I would love to hear that. How does one do that?
