The Hungarian Rhapsody No.14 in F minor for orchestra is No.1 in the same key for piano.
The symphony appears to have been recorded without any retakes. This is most unlikely even for an orchestra of this standard. It was issued as a set in some countries, but one side at a time in others. An English pressing is known with the London orchestra named on the label. This was probably an error though possibly the German orchestra became unacceptable in 1914.
