I first discovered this recording on a Vox/Turnabout reissue in 1968. I was managing a record store in Bloomington Indiana and we sold something like 400 copies. This generated a phone call from George Mendelssohn, owner of Vox. Quote

Also the Debussy from that concert has his merits ..... regarding Murakami, I`m not a completis regarding his euvry but "Colourless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage" being a perticular favourite (and - no spoiling intended - Liszt + Berman do play an important role) ....
