I disagree with JH's sumation.  Hough is truely one of the century's
keyboard titans but for the life of me, he does mainstream repetiore
crummily.  I like Graffman's old record but I also donot like the Jando
performances.  Masterpieces such as these deserve excellent performances
(Gilels,Pollini, Richter or Horowitz are preferable).  Sometimes you
pay for what you get.  Has R.Serkin's CBS performances been reissued?
