The gentleman (?) at the piano is probably not Edith Farnaby (who is the pianist playing on the disc), nor is the lady (singer?) standing in front.     There is a cover credit for the candelabra, however.

Well, should be a 'guy' @ the piano staring at that buxom gal, but the one who comes to mind w/ a candelabra doesn't fit the role!  ;) ;D

Edith Farnadi   born in Budapest, started her studies at the age of seven at the Budapest Academy with Arnold Szekely, graduated at the age of seventeen, and became a professor there.   The cover babe is unidentified.    The candelabra is courtesy of Plummer Inc.
I don't have the other two discs of the set.

Here's a good caption-filler cover...

Hmmm...I thought his hands stunk of a new moisturizer that he purchased from a Mary Kay saleswoman? :-\

BIS makes some really beautiful covers, a few of the very best, which makes it all the weirder when they poop out something like this:



Heck, check out their new releases gallery and this sticks out like a fat kid in husky jeans at a black tie cocktail reception.

Haha, all that's missing is a burning cigarette dangling from his fingers. ???

I find the real creativity of this cover to be in the fading letters of "Pavane", suggesting that the viewer, perhaps similar to the cover's subject, will doze off during the performance.

Asleep? Looks more like "dead".

As in Pavane for a dead prince(ss).

In this way he had a chance to have the rhythm drilled into him. And this was the beginning of a musical inclination in his descendants. JS Bach

Sequel to Weekend at Bernie's, Weekend at Maxim's, culminating in a performance of Cage 4'33.
