This is an HMV 'Special' pressing — a custom or private-label issue not part of the standard commercial catalogue — of movements 5 and 6 of Beethoven's Kreutzer Sonata, performed by the Ranee of Sarawak (Sylvia Brett, an aristocratic amateur violinist) with W.H. Reed, leader of the LSO and friend of Elgar. Such private HMV Specials are rarely documented and almost never appear in trade.
