>1199 Alan Peters, for Premis [Germany] digital

To capitalize on the new digital technology, Scholz spent a week recording three sessions per day with three London orchestras (the Philharmonia on 3&7 and the LPO on 4&5 Jan). The tapes were then licensed to a large number of labels. Many issues used pseudonyms for conductor, orchestra, or both and there was soon confusion over which works had been recorded with which orchestra, and which had been conducted by Scholz’s assistant, Laurence Siegel.

eg: Wagner’s Overture to “Tannhäuser”, credited to “LSO, Henry Adolph” on Sonata 91047 was actually played by the Philharmonia.
