This release is a compilation of Stokowski/Houston performances recorded at the Houston Civic Center by Bert Whyte and originally released in 1960. Compositions include Stokowski arrangements of "Wotan's Farewell" and "Magic Fire Music" from Wagner's "Die Walkure," "Mazurka in A minor," "Prelude in D minor" and "Waltz in C sharp minor" by Chopin. Also included in the not often performed on recorded "Fantasy on a Hymn Tune" composed by Thomas Canning. The LP, as are all reissues from this series, was cut directly from the 35mm magnetic film using a vintage Westrex 1551 tape machine, with specially built playback electronics that are vastly superior to any others used on these machines to playback the original 35mm tapes.

Good Everest recording. Stokowski conducts his arrangements with sensibility and heart, he was a superb conductor, if sometimes unappreciated by envious critics.
