Pseudonyms for orchestras, via The classical music guide forums website, viewed Feb. 4, 2013 (In the early LP days, the London Philharmonic wasn't allowed to use its own name when recording for American labels Vanguard & Westminster; so, both companies named it the "Philharmonic Promenade Orchestra." This is where you get all those Boult recordings from that era that appeared on those labels.)

Pristine classical historic recordings website, Feb. 4, 2013 (under PACO018: Belshazzar's Feast - Walton: "Some ten years after composer William Walton conducted the first recording of his oratorio, Belshazzar's Feast, Sir Adrian Boult made this, the first recording for LP issue, on the Nixa label. For contractual reasons, the original orchestra was credited as the 'Philharmonic Promenade Orchestra' - the British Library's Sound Archive Catalogue has corrected this to the London Philharmonic Orchestra.")
