Field notes
The page credits the source performance to a recital at Wiedemann Recital Hall, Wichita State University, and links to the Internet Archive. It also identifies public-domain sheet music edited by Eleanor Selfridge-Field and credits the Paulstretch software and its web port. The page describes the audio as live and unedited; it does not pre-render the full year of playback.
