The Complete Crazy Sunday at The Lighthouse - September 13, 1953

The term "orchestra" has changed a lot over the centuries, and only when musicology created standard terms in the late 19th century became associated with large ensembles as we are now used to. Originally it could determine any size ensemble. Some still use it that way. Standard sizes and instrumentation are a rather new invention, and before 1900 were defined by practical circumstances rather than musical requirements. Studying early music history taught me such things. Wikipedia is not of much help here.

It's a 2-LP set. I think there's a vinyl bubble going on, but 50 Euros for 2 LPs doesn't seem that high by current standards.

But not at this price!
