Ortiz made my favorite recording of the Shostakovich concerto number 2,
with a quite haunting 2nd movement.

Chuprik has a Rachmaninoff CD on Amadis(?) that I like.  It has the
variations on the Chopin C-minor prelude, and some shorter works like the
B-minor prelude and the Moment Musical in B-minor.  In my opinion she does
the prelude exceptionally well.  I also have a Beethoven CD of Chuprik's on
Naxos(?), with the Pastorale, and (I think) the Waldstein, which is decent
but not at the level of her Rachmaninoff in my opinion.
