I haven't heard it yet, but from your comments, as well as from those
on the amazon.com web site, it sounds like a recording to get.  In the
past, I've thought Kuchar good, but not as outstanding as "revelatory"
implies.  Nevertheless, it may just be *his* piece.

Anyway, Naxos makes it relatively painless to find out.  Thanks, Roger.
