A recent comment about La Valse and performances by the Lamoureux Orchestra (CD Review) made me look into this orchestra further. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchestre_Lamoureux
One of my earliest LPs (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Etcheverry-D.../dp/B0046ZBZMW note the label - Fontana) was conducted by Jésus Etchéverry with that Orchestra - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J%C3%A9sus_Etcheverry
I had not realised that Lamoureux is/was the name of a person - the founder and conductor of the orchestra - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Lamoureux
The orchestra still exists and its current conductor is Fayçal Karoui- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fay%C3%A7al_Karoui
There are quite a lot of performances by the orchestra (many of them in mono) on Spotify - such as http://open.spotify.com/track/3GoSiJhIhbcaiJ6hkZlXXO
