The Birmingham Symphony Orchestra conducted by Dame Ethel Smyth performing the overture to her opera 'The Wreckers' (dated 1930) on Columbia DX287 — a large 12-inch pressing. As with the HMV Boatswain's Mate disc elsewhere in this collection, a self-conducted Smyth recording is both musically and historically important; this is a different and later recording.
The summary above was written by AI from what is known of the artist and the pressing. It is not a description of this copy's condition, and we have not checked every detail — ask us and we will tell you what we can actually see.
Condition is not recorded for this one — ask and we will describe the disc honestly before either side commits. Nothing in this collection has a fixed price; an enquiry starts a conversation.
