Most of the items originate in privately made recordings from Lady Barbirolli's private archive and, though restoration to anything approaching modern standards has proved extremely difficult, it is nevertheless felt thal the unique nature of much of the material more than justifies this tribute to a remarkable musician and much loved person. Because of damage on the original recording, a few seconds of music are missing from the Castelnuovo-Tedesco work. -- End quote
