Description
Up for auction is Thomas L. Clear: Augmented History of the Violin on Records (1920 - 1950). TLC 2580, box with 4 records, plus a second copie of disc 3 and a personal letter , of why the extra LP .
Originally issued circa 1974 as a 3 record set in an edition of 250 copies. The success of this first edition was such that a further 150 copies were pressed. This second edition had a fourth record added to it.
A copy of this 4 record second edition (issued circa 1976) is offered in this listing.The set is an anthology of rare and scarce violin music, almost all transfered from 78 rpm recordings. The set comes with the booklet of notes that was included with the original three records, plus an additional pamphlet of notes that covers the content of the fourth record. In essence, with a few carefully considered exceptions, Tom allocated to each violinist he selected for inclusion in the set the equivalent of one 78 RPM side. For each violinist, Tom provides his own short biography. In the order in which they appear on the 3 LPs, the honor roll of violinists that Tom included in the Augmented History of the Violin on Records (1920 - 1950) is: Jacques Thibaud Jeno Hubay Carl Flesch Henri Marteau Cecelia Hansen Mischa Elman Duci de Kerekjarto Laszlo Szentgyorgi Louis Zimmerman Alexander Moguilewsky Franz von VecseyIbolyka Zilzer Tosha Samaroff Eddy Brown Albert Spaltung Alfred Dubois Gerhard Taschner Alberto Bachmann Richard Czerwonky Heinz Standke Henri Merckel Juan Manen Alfredo San Malo Manuel Quiroga Gregors Dinicu Georges Unesco Miguel Candela Rene Benedetti Samuel Gardner Karl Freund Joseph HassidIbolyka Zitze Hugo Kohlberg Tossy Spivakovsky. The Augmented History of the Violin on Records ( 1920 - 1950) was issued in a strictly limited edition, and even though additional copies of individual records do exist, all of these are in the possession of the Clear Estate. Tom intended to sell (or give away, if it was the right person or institution) 250 copies, and only 250 copies, and he stuck to his word implacable.
