Symphonies 4 & 7 ones really that I'm not that familiar with which should be changed really.

unable to use vinyl, this download was inspired by the posts to the Bob Dylan Mono Vinyl thread:

I am going to re-assess my views off FZ.

Relayer & Tales are my favorite Yes albums but many others are close behind.

Karl,

I went with the original recording of 1990 which is without Chopin's Piano Sonata No. 2. That piece was added to the 2002 reissue.

I was so taken by the outstanding performance of Gaspard de la nuit that I played it three times in a row last night and still did not have a chance to hear the Prokofiev part.

Haim


Thought you would like it!


Don't hold back on the Prokofiev. The three War Sonata's, No. 6, 7 and 8 are essential listening I think and Pogorelich is as good as any in the 6th - such energy!

Pollini's 7th is self recommending and my favourite of the three -

Karl


Another recommendation for sonatas 7 and 8 (plus the great #2):


Pletnev is helped here by one of the best piano recordings ever.
