Hi Haim,
I am, very much, and I will be getting more of her recordings.
Don't know if you follow the "Pianist are getting better....." thread, but when I first got the download I did not like the chorales interspersed with the preludes and fugues. Dan suggested I try the p&f on their own. The chorales are fine, but they interrupted, for me, the flow of the preludes and fugues. As it was in my iTunes, I created a cd-r with just the preludes and fugues as she ordered them, but removed the chorales. I hope I haven't changed her "vision" but I now have a much more listenable disc for myself.
Nice having an extra listening day, today. Hope you have enjoyed yours.
regards
Jeff A


Jeff,

I did not follow that thread. I am not used to have Bach being played in such a ravishing style and I must admit that it is quite an experience.
Stern has also a Schubert recording which I did not have a chance to listen to yet.

The extra day was full of chores but at least the weather was half decent and I am expecting a quiet evening.

Regards,
Haim

Is that the original CD or vinyl? Hopefully not the 'Rush Remaster'.

Hi Joe. I was warned here to avoid the remasters and this one is an American mercury pressing from back in the day, so i assume it has not been remastered. It sounds very good anyway.

Still waiting for delivery of Permanent Waves to see if I like them enough to further explore.

Cheers, Paul.
