    Judging from the sound this must be
    one of Melmoth's favorite pianists! ;-)

    Enjoy!

    Sounds like the great Horowitz/Reiner collaboration to me.

    Don't listen to that one, listen to this restoration:

    Thanks for listening. It isn't Horowitz. ;-)

    One should listen to everything. I would
    be happy to listen to any "better" reading
    of the work.

    pianist:

    No, it wasn't Reiner either. I do however
    understand why one would be inclined
    to think it was Reiner. Sounds close to
    his style. Hint: all those involved were
    Europeans -- pianist, conductor and
    orchestra.

    I am not interested much in guesses
    about the performer, though if one
    enjoys this kind of game feel free
    to speculate.

    I am far more interested in hearing
    what people think about peformances,
    how they listen, what they like and what
    they don't, without filtering their thoughts
    through pre-conceived notions.
