More Rameau, but from a later period in life. This is a 24/192 remaster of a 2002 DSD recording and sounds terrific.

His playing is exquisite. George, thanks for pointing him out.

Don't blame me afterwards. People who like the "recognized" players will not like him. So if you want to go save on this music then avoid Lang Lang and go for Uchida, Pires or Perahia

Great record!

An old friend of mine who I haven't seen in years was instrumental in them getting signed to a record label at this time.
