[78-L] Erno Balogh - some questions

[Thomas Stern]

Hi David,
  Thanks for the Columbia data.
  The Asch (DM-102)and 3 DISC (770/771/772) albums were 1945 or 1946.
  He came to the US about 1924, so the Columbia session must have been his first recordings.  There is then
a decade with no recordings I know of.  He recorded accompanying Lotte Lehmann (Vi) in the 30's, when he also was doing radio
work.  Seems strange for there to be that long a gap.
  He recorded for a bunch of "little labels" in the 40's some were reissued on LP, then did 8 LP's for Lyrichord in the 50's.
  Does anyone have information on the SOUND BOOK PRESS Lp???  Thanks!
  Best wishes, Thomas.

Balogh did some Bach for Disc..2 Part Inventions, maybe some others.

 From the Columbia books:

81767-1	Where My Dear Lady Sleeps (30008-D, 91-M)
81768-1-2	Two Eyes of Grey (unissued)

No others by Erno listed.
