Anyone have the recording date for Rolf Liebermann's Concerto for Jazz
Band and Symphony Orchestra with Fritz Reiner, the Chicago Symphony and
the Sauter Finegan Orchestra? Not in LORD (he doesn't think it's jazz..he
should give it a listen, I hadn't heard it in decades and thought it
sounded great). I know the date is on the RCA Gold Seal reissue but that's
out in the garage or some other place that requires my putting on mukluks
and a parka. The piece was premiered November 18, 1954 and probably
recorded shortly thereafter.
No recording date is given. The dates given on the Gold Seal reissue are
November 18, 1954 for the American premiere by Reiner/CSO in Chicago. The
piece itself was premiered at the Donaueschingen Festival on October 17,
1954. I believe this was first released early in 1956 on stereo tape. The
Gold Seal claims "First stereo release" but I believe that only applies to
disc format. The original disc was Victor LM 1888.
