Thanks to Bob Stumpf for alerting list members fond of Latin American music
to the availability of this Stokowski gem.
And thanks to Bob for providing Daniella Thompson's excellent background
notes on the recording.
One error in Thompson's notes should be mentioned: In 1940 Stokowski was
*not* the musical director of the Philadelphia Orchestra. Stokowski
resigned that post in 1938, although he continued to make guest appearances
for three years.
