This sealed copy was obtained in the early 1980s. It indicates "Printed in England" but the importer's sticker on the cover states "Made in Holland." Often the importers stickered things incorrectly just as a formality to get the LPs through Customs, however some later Decca LPs were sometimes pressed in Holland. I don't want to open the sealed copy to determine the exact pressing.
From a review by John J. Puccio, Classical Candor:
La Fille Mal Gardee is a rustic ballet originally produced around the end of the eighteen century (1789), based on a number of folk tunes and subsequently arranged in any number of different versions. The one we have here was put together around 1960 by John Lanchbery, based on an 1828 arrangement by Ferdinand Herold (of Zampa fame). The music tells the story of a comically difficult romance between a farmer's daughter and her lover, complicated by the appearance of a young dunce favored by the girl's mother. The music is lively, earthy, sometimes unpolished, but always entertaining. Lanchbery's direction of the Covent Garden Orchestra is equally lively, never unpolished, and certainly entertaining. In fact, I can't imagine hearing the music played any other way.
This is a rare copy, especially still sealed.
