In 1908-09, Henry Wood , accompanying his singer wife Olga Wood at the piano, made a number of records. Most of these discs (and some later unissued recordings with the Queen's Hall Orchestra) lay unknown in a cupboard in the Royal Academy of Music for nearly half a century, until discovered by Jonathan Dobson.
