It was a fabulous recital, and I completely agree with your comments about KZ's LP of the waltzes (or cassette in my case). They are by far the best recordings of these little masterpieces I have ever heard - the rhythmic bounce, elasticity, virtuosity, phrasing, timing, and sheer Chopinesqueness (!) are all quite perfect. Why won't he allow them to be re-released???
