-Theme From Piano Concerto No. 2
-Prelude In G Minor
-How Fair This Spot (Soprano: Patricia Clark)
-Theme From Rhapsody On A Theme Of Paganini

-Theme From Symphony No. 2
-Finale Of Piano Concerto No. 2

Fortunately, these recordings will NOT be lost to history!
Please let me know if you have any questions, or if you know anything about this particular recording or set
