Capsule Summary

The first eighteen Waltzes are taken from Arthur Moreira-Lima’s Pro Arte recording. Tracks 19 and 20 come from Jerzy Sterczyński’s Selene disc, although early issues of this Concert Artist volume originally used Moreira-Lima for track 19 before substituting Sterczyński’s faster performance. The three Ecossaises (tracks 21–23) remain unidentified. No evidence of tempo manipulation was detected.
