[MFM] = Music For Moderns

[ASPB] = All Star Parade of Bands

[MWIM] = My World Is Music

All shows were broadcast by NBC except where noted

I received a great deal of assistance from Ed Chaplin and Michael Sparke in identifying the dates, locations, personnel, and soloists for the broadcasts from the 1950s.

The broadcasts from the 1940s have recently been added and have yet to undergo that level of scrutiny. Corrections and additions will be made as they are discovered.
