Whether it's still in >print is another matter. That's the Rachmaninoff 3rd with Coates. VH never recorded the Rachmaninoff 2nd, nor, to the best of my knowledge, did he ever perform it. I do recall reading that he played through the Rachmaninoff Paganini Rhapsody with Ivan Davis playing the piano reduction of the orchestral part. I believe VH was scheduled to record some of the Rachmaninoff two piano music with the composer, but it never happened. They did play for each other. Another Horowitz loss...he considered playing the Prokofiev Second Concerto. Karl
