Notes

SWISS CONCERT
**********************************************************************
[PROGRAM PICKED UP FROM THE LISTING IN THE REVIEW OF 12 MAY 1939 IN
THE NEW YORK HERALD TRIBUNE]
**********************************************************************
Unclear if Cecil Leeson was playing an alto saxophone or a regular sax at this concert (program lists regular, recordings say the Martin piece may be for either, and Grove's instrumentation calls for an alto.)
