**********************************
EXPLANATION
Technology

Acoustic recording was the method used until 1925, thereafter electrical. Mono was replaced by stereo in 1955/57 and analogue gave way to digital in 1978/83. The technology is only specified during the transitional periods. Recording in more than two channels became common during the 1970s but is not specified here, as the various quadraphonic formats failed to find a significant market, despite support from E.M.I. (releases with international catalogue numbers that end in Q, eg: 0C 063 02612Q), C.B.S. and others. The resurgence of interest in surround sound in the early twenty-first century may eventually prompt the issue of multi-channel recordings hitherto only available in stereo.

Recording date

The dates given are those of the LSO’s sessions, not all of which necessarily produced material used in the final master. They may also exclude the dates for cadenzas, recitatives or overdubbing needed to complete the recording. Note that a 78rpm side was sometimes re-made after the recording had been issued, so that early and later copies of discs bearing identical catalogue numbers may contain different performances.

Soloists

All performers take part in all works listed unless specified as [a], [bc], etc.; all such specification applies until the next semi-colon. An alternative layout, with a cast list, is adopted where singers have particular named roles.

Backing tracks

This term is used both where the LSO provided an accompaniment to singers or soloists subsequently recorded elsewhere, and where the orchestra’s contribution was overlaid on a pre-existing recording. The sources are not always conclusive – artists occasionally attended sessions without performing, owing to illness or constraints of time – and so it has not always been possible to determine which operatic roles were overdubbed.

Repertoire

In the titles of works, a hyphen is used with descriptive terms and a colon to indicate an excerpt, as Coriolan - Overture Op.62

Egmont Op.84 : Overture

the former being a self-contained concert work and the latter one movement from a set of incidental music. Many arias are familiarly identified by a few words of text. Since the trend has been towards recording arias with some of the preceding recitative, these are not necessarily the first words sung, nor do they necessarily indicate the language adopted for the recording.

Matrix number

H.M.V. used prefixes beginning with B (then 0, from 1931) for ten inch sides and C (then 2) for twelve inch. Apart from Columbia CA and Decca DR, all other prefixes appearing here indicate twelve inch 78rpm sides.

Coupling

78rpm recordings often ran to an odd number of sides, so that a coupling or fill-up was required. Sessions for LPs and CDs usually aimed to produce a complete disc, though a few labels (notably Lyrita and Reader’s Digest) tended to record repertoire to fit session time and sort it into discs later. Where an LSO recording was used as a coupling or fill-up, the entries are cross-referenced; brief details are given for non-LSO couplings. Note that these original couplings were not necessarily retained in reissues.

Catalogue number

The label is that given in the heading, unless otherwise stated, except that

i) many Decca recordings were issued on the London label in the US,

ii) CD transfers of Columbia and H.M.V. originals are labelled E.M.I. Classics.

In general UK and US numbers are listed, separated by a semi-colon (;). If a recording was not released (nr) there, the number for another country may be shown. An equals sign (=) is used to link alternative numbers given to the same release, for example mono and stereo versions, set and individual disc numbers, or domestic and export numbers. A point indicates a format specific suffix (such as .1 for LP and .2 for CD). A hyphen always indicates a continuous sequence of numbers and a slash a discontinuous sequence (so Ho555-58c is a run of four and Ho555/56/61c is just the three specified).

An item in parentheses, as [(c)], was only issued in partial form under the number that follows.

Reissues and transfers

Most complete reissues on twelve inch LPs or CDs are listed but excerpts (such as single disc selections from complete operas or individual titles from recitals) are generally ignored. Many ten inch LPs and most 45rpm discs (formats used in the 1950s and early 1960s to break down LPs into more affordable parts) have been omitted. Compilations, samplers, magazine covermounts and – with very few exceptions – transfers to tape formats (whether open-reel, cassette, cartridge or DAT) are also excluded. So too minidiscs; SACD and DVD-A are included on probation while the market considers its verdict.

Incidental notes

Italicized notes are used to

i) identify recordings of particular historic significance, either through

proximity to the first performance or by the presence of the composer

at the sessions,

ii) justify the inclusion of recordings marketed without naming the LSO,

iii) indicate the start of a set or series of recordings,

iv) explain or draw attention to any other points of interest.
