"...The recordings of first performances contained in the Basel and Zurich broadcasting studios' archives, made before a live audience, are unique documents in sound which have only recently been copied to digital audio tape to ensure their preservation. The approach of Paul Sacher's ninetieth birthday on April 28, 1996 caused consideration to be given to transferring certain of the more interesting recordings of first performances onto digital compact discs..."--Program notes, p. 12.
