This phase of the orchestra’s film work came to an end in 1955, when a number of the orchestra’s principal players were accused of giving film sessions priority over concert engagements.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
PHILIP STUART was born in 1944, read Modern History at Worcester College, Oxford, and was a school teacher for nearly twenty years. He first saw the LSO at the Bath Festival in 1962. Five years later he moved to London, accompanied by a collection of LPs carefully catalogued on index cards. Listening to records, reading about records and cataloguing records eventually left no time for the day job and he has been a freelance discographer since 1985. His first publication, “Igor Stravinsky – The Composer in the Recording Studio” (Greenwood Press, 1991) won the Association for Recorded Sound Collections annual Award for Best Research in the Field of Recorded Classical Music in New York in 1992. “The London Philharmonic Discography” (1997) was followed by “Marriner and the Academy – A Record Partnership” (1999). A catalogue of Decca’s classical recordings was interrupted by the present study, but resumed in 2005 and was completed in 2009. A discography of the world’s most recorded chamber orchestra, the English Chamber Orchestra, followed in 2010, then “Benjamin Britten Performing and Performed - a Centenary Discography” in 2012 and “Adrian Boult, 1889-1983 - A Chronological Discography” in 2016. His current project, “Classics Club / Saga, 1956-1986 - a Discographical Adventure” will be published in 2017. In 2003 he made his debut as a lecturer at the Cardiff Recorded Music Society and in 2006 he presented a programme of LSO recordings there, which he repeated for the Bath Recorded Music Society. “Classic Record Collector” devoted five pages of its Summer 2009 issue to a profile of “the indefatigable discographer”. He still enjoys listening to music, particularly eighteenth century wind octets.
