Arthur Honegger conducting his own 'Pacific 231' — the celebrated 1923 orchestral depiction of a steam locomotive — on Parlophone R20108. A composer's self-conducted recording of one of the most famous orchestral works of the 1920s is both historically and musically significant. The R-series Parlophone suggests a later or reissue pressing than the E-series companion disc (id 4030).
