IGOR STRAVINSKY - THE COMPOSER IN THE RECORDING STUDIO: A Comprehensive Discography.

Edition: First printing.

Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, (1991). Hardcover first edition - "The most thorough discography of the works and recordings of Igor Stravinsky to date as well as a chronicle of the composer's recording career. As the first discography to list all of Stravinskys recorded compositions, including concert and broadcast performances, both pre- and post-World War II, as well as all LP issues, this volume displays the wide range of Stravinsky's talent. The significance of Robert Craft's contribution to the continued exposure of Stravinsky's works after 1948 is well documented, as are the piano performances recorded by Stravinsky's son. A lengthy introductory essay traces Stravinskys recording history from his early use of the pianola through the advent of more sophisticated musical technology which enabled the composer to become the composer-performer. . . [It] lists 191 studio performances, catalogs recorded issues, and details unpublished recordings." Discographies, Number 45, Michael Gray, series editor. Chronological index, index. vii, 96 pp. ISBN: 0-313279586.

Condition: Fine in brown boards with a black panel and copper stamping.
