"A DECCA recording, released in Australia exclusively by World Record Club."
Australian WRC 1st pressing, sourced from original stampers and featuring unique sleeve art. "S/2813" on sleeve, "S-2813" on blue 'herald' labels, featuring the 1973-style non-bold font. Issued in the 1973-74 "Masterworks of Music" Programme (previously the Basic Library) along with the cassette (0439), reel-to-reel and 8-track. The programme was nominally for reissues, but included new recordings of previously available works: this one replaced S/2410 with Leinsdorf conducting. Offered again on all four formats in April 1974, and again in April 1975 (with the new R- numbering system).
