| Notes |
|---|
| Also see B-799. EDVR vol. 2 notes: It seems that the recording technicians confused "Selections" and "Overture," as catalogs listing 2605 [B-799] consistently give its title as "Selections" and the title of 16287 and 62458 as "Overture." |
| Also recorded as C-6945. |
| Specific instrumentation applicable to takes 3[a]-5 only. |
