Yesterday I came across a Telarc CD (CD-80489) that came out a couple
of years ago, with the title: "A Window in Time: Rachmaninoff Performs
His Solo Piano Works.".  As I understood R's famous recordings on Ampico
rolls were scanned and transformed using a special program into files
that were played on a Boesendorfer piano in a concert hall.  Thus, as the
notes on the back of the CD promiss, one won't be able to distinguish this
recording from a "recent" studio recording made by Rachmaninov.  Anybody
heard this? Comments?
