Wes asks about the Feinberg WTC, saying he hears every note sings.

I agree - there is a devotional quality to the playing.  I am enjoying the
Schepkin disk very much, but Feinberg's has a lock on my affections
forever.

There were two releases of Feinberg's recording.  One, on RussianDIsc, was
inexpensive.  Be warned: Book II, Prelude #13 starts off at annoyingly low
level.  At some point a probably lazy engineer realized this and turned up
the volume to match the rest of the recording.  I don't know if the other
label also contains this problem.  Does anyone know of the other recording,
and whether it is free from this defect?
