Comments:
Information from owned LP. This LP issued in "German Democratic Republic" is part of an 8 LPs serie under the direction of Prof. Dr. Georg Knepler and covering the entire history of Music. It is a bizarre product that may be well originates from West German producers, some titles seem so well linked to other german LPs (i.e. Archiv) or to Pro Musica Antiqua, Brussels directed by Safford Cape....
The LP comes with 52pp. large format booklet.
