Dear CM fans, A few months back, the Gramophone publication International Piano Quarterly surveyed the many recordings of Balakirev's super-virtuoso piano piece Islamey, Oriental Fantasy. Does anyone know which recordings were selected? For the record, Berezovsky's recording on Teldec gets a rosette in the Penguin Guide and I've heard good things elsewhere about the recordings of Julius Katchen and Simon Barere. Any replies greatly appreciated.:-) Hall Jeffrey <[log in to unmask]>
