Ernest Ansermet
Tchaikovsky
The Nutcracker
(Casse-Noisette)
2 LPs

Low start!.....NO Reserve!.....NO high priced ‘Buy It Now’.

While you’re saving up £300 for others on eBay, you could get this for less! (Or hopefully more!)
I am not a classical music expert so here are the details:
* Ernest Ansermet conducting L’Orchestre de la Suisse Romande – The complete ballet on two LPs.
* Complete with the 8-page inner booklet which is firmly attached.
* Cover Made and printed in England by A.White & Co., Ltd 59.1

* LABEL: DECCA “Full Frequency Stereophonic Sound” SXL.2092/93
* MATRIX Nos: ZAL 4221-1E / ZAL 4222-1E / ZAL 4223-1E / ZAL 4224-1E
* ISSUED: 1959 (Not a box set or later reissue)

* With original Decca Stereo inner sleeves.
* Record Condition: Both records are near excellent with no visible scuffs or scratches. They play fine with only an occasional ‘tic’. (Play graded not ‘visual only’ like some eBayers)
* Sleeve Condition: A little wear to the sleeve – the laminate is peeling at the edges on the front – a little more on the back. But there’s no rips, splits or writing. Inner booklet all OK.
* Covered by my 100% satisfaction guarantee.
