have to pull this out once again ... the 60's recording is well-done. i believe they re-recorded it in the 80's as seen in the picture.

Both performances are excellent .... but do prefer the older one as the new recording puts the piano to the fore prominently ....

Soulpope, Surprised that you don't care for Beethoven's Violin Sonatas? Do you have the same opinion about his Piano Trios? I have highly positive views of bot the violin sonatas and piano trios.
