The disc you mention was actually recorded on Aug.  23, 1965, American
Legion Hall, Hollywood.  The date and location on the liner note for
MS 6881 is wrong.  cf.  Igor Stravinsky--the composer in the recording
studio: a comprehensive discography / Philip Stuart (New York: Greenwood
Press, 1991), p.  50).

The 1953 recording was with the Cleveland orchestra, a mono disc ML 4830.
