Alicia de Larrocha (1923 - 2009) performs the dance No. 1 in G major, from the Twelve Spanish Dances by Enrique Granados. I created this video from the LP shown above, issued in 1973 on the Musical Heritage Society label, serial number MHS 1518. The Library of Congress online catalogue entry for this LP can be reviewed here: http://lccn.loc.gov/72751043
So that there is no question in the mind of the listener, I rely principally on images taken from the LP and the LP jacket to validate the authenticity of historical recordings such as this.
