[soulpope]

Lazar Berman "performs Schumann and Liszt "live" @ Montreal in 1990 .... a great pianist hands down ....

[Peter Friedman]

Op.59/3   and   Op.95

[HutchFan]

Now spinning this LP:

Rimsky-Korsakov: Scheherazade / Mehta, LAPO (London, 1975)
A terrific performance enhanced by typically exquisite Decca AQ.

For this listener, Scheherazade is one of those works that never fails to cast its magic spell.
