Typo delays release of St. Louis Orchestra CD

Classical music fans who were looking forward to the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra’s world-premiere CD release of John Adams’ “Doctor Atomic Symphony” on Tuesday are going to have to wait another week — and they can thank a typo for the delay.

A printing error at Nonesuch has caused the shipment to be pushed back to July 28. A misspelling of conductor David Robertson’s name, with a misplaced T, meant that the cover art had to be reprinted, resulting in the postponement, according to the music company.
