I don't know, but I'm writing only to add that, on LP at least, these
recordings are very hard to listen to.  Which is really too bad, because
the music, a lot of Brian overtures and the like, is very interesting.
There have been some decent Brian (symphony) recordings by student
orchestras:  these aren't among them.
