Two orchestral pieces on HMV D191: a Suite of Ancient Dances conducted by Stanford (1916) paired with Sir Alexander Mackenzie conducting an overture to 'The Cricket on the Hearth'. Sir Charles Villiers Stanford was one of the dominant figures of the British musical renaissance; his self-conducted HMV recordings are of historical importance to collectors of early British orchestral 78s.
