And a toucher, Monsieur, which has never been heard earlier or since!
I am well aware of many great Mozart concertos recordings like those by
Casadesus, Haskil, Schnabel, Solomon, Michelangeli, A.  Fischer, Anda,
Horszowski, Rubinstein, Pires, Uchida, Haebler, Fou Ts'ong, Tan, Bilson,
Lipatti and many others but I *never* heard Mozart played like Perahia
does.  Many people seem to find him too elegant and superficial but I find
myself always returning to him.

Philip (hm...getting a bit over-enthusiastic maybe ;)
