Out of curiosity, I just checked out the listings on Amazon (for the individual CD).  The highest prices that I saw for it new (or used) was $45 and $35--both by the same vendor.  Did they adjust their price(s?)?  Or did someone actually pay that much for it? 

PD

The vendor isn't listed now.

Maybe they saw my post and got scared.

Same here. I have no qualms about Queffelec, but I noticed that I have a recording by John Ogden in a box set, and that there is a Kathryn Stott recording (and I am an admirer of hers). It's always nice to have different views of a complex work.

I have it with the rest of Dutilleux's piano music played by Robert Levin

Very nice!

Hello Karl, good to see your appreciation for this music from Iran that does not get the attention it deserves. I recently also paid a lot of attention to the music of India, for which a special thread has been opened. However,it's getting very little attention so  I'm considering to stop.
This is not a complaint, there was a proposal to open a separate thread for classical music from India so that it is not lost, but given the lack of attention it seems pointless to me.

Cowell: Concerto Piccolo

What joy and freedom one must feel to hear that nice respectable tune being played by the orchestra in the background then join in on the piano and mangle it .

Robert Russell Bennett
Abraham Lincoln: Likeness in Symphony Form
Sights and Sounds: An Orchestral Entertainment
Moscow SO - William T. Stromberg

Compared to a Chandos wind band recording I recently heard of Bennett's music, this is much more serious in compositional tone. While there are still whiffs of the stage, for the most part, I hear more influences of Bartok or Britten, or perhaps early Copland is more apt. An interesting difference.

Another old favorite now available on Qobuz. Remember remember the Sine Qua Non label? I had this originally on a cassette!  (I guess MHS bought the rights to it.) Fantastic playing and sound.
