[78-L] Wallenstein Broadcast

[David Lennick]

Can anyone date an Alfred Wallenstein Academy of Music broadcast on AFRS 
(Series H-88 #6)? Most of those discs give the original broadcast dates but 
this one doesn't. References are made to "the recent war" so we know it's 1946 
or later. Selections include 3/4 of Gillis's Symphony 5 1/2 and Robert Ward's 
Jubilation Overture (premiered after "his return to New York, last March"). I'm 
just curious whether the Gillis was premiered here or by Toscanini, who usually 
gets the credit..the score seems different in this performance.
