My first acquaintance with Sandor's playing was his recording of Bach's
Overture in the French Manner on an early Columbia LP.  One of my favorite
performances of anything, though a piano teacher of mine once dismissed
it as "romantic." An odd thing to say about a student of Bartok, I think.
In any case, Sandor made the music flow in a way I have never heard
anyone else come near.
