the Byron Janis disc in the Philips Great Pianists series (2 discs), it appears to have a few Études not in the big box so it's not completely redundant.
"big pieces": BEETHOVEN Sonata 17 "Tempest", CHOPIN: Sonata 2, Scherzo 3, 4 Études, Ballade 1, Impromptu 1, SCHUBERT: Impromptu D.899/2, LISZT: Rigoletto Paraphrase, 'Dante' Sonata

Harry - unusual choice for the cover art considering the composer - looked on Amazon at the back label - the artist is William Oxer and he does mainly female portraitures in oils or acrylics - website HERE - I sent him an email for a potential explanation for choosing his painting for a Boccherini CD?  Will post back if I get a response - Dave

The Vox Debussy disc Todd is playing is how I first learned to love Debussy.

There we go, this looks more organized.

Thank you.

[Mandryka]

This one - also on the Schnitger/Hamburg-  might be interesting for Sonic Man too, as almost half of it is music by Scheidemann.

An outstandimg recording in every respect.

I must say I find that internal spiritual style unique and really moving, probably more moving than Zerer and certainly more moving than Karin Nelson and J-P Lacaudey.
