An ideal person to field this inquiry is Dr. David Breckbill.  His
scholarly field is the history of classical recordings, and he's a regular
annotator for Music & Arts releases.  He also writes for BBC Music
Magazine and the Lincoln Journal Star.

You can try to reach him through Doane College, Crete NE.  Or if that
doesn't pan out for you, I can probably get you his phone number: his
brother-in-law is a college buddy of mine and we have regular e-mail
correspondence.
