ANocturne Arnold

'Joska Szigeti' on HMV 3-7934 — the prefix '3-' denotes a Hungarian pressing in HMV's matrix system — is almost certainly Joseph (József) Szigeti early in his career, recording in Budapest before his international reputation was established. The 'Nocturne Arnold' is likely a short piece by the Hungarian composer Gyula Arnold. This is an early, pre-international career pressing of a major violinist.AI summary
