I realised after I'd hit send that something wasn't quite right. The
confusion in my mind (well, a mere part of it) resulted, I think, from
my mixing up the Gilels recording with a near-contemporary (I think)
Richter Apassionata - and yes, I know that's Op.567 and Op.53 is the
Waldstein. What was the Richert c/w?

I just don't ussually deal in opus numbers when it comes to Schubert.
In fact, apart from the Op.99 piano trio, I can't think (oh yes, the
Op.142 impromptus) think of a single Schubert opus number.

I can do you a nice line in Deutsch, OTOH...:-)
