Chris: Do you have a source for the Nishimura recordings? All I can find on the internet is a list of his recordings and his email address. Is there a place where the recordings can be purchased on the internet?

  I got all my Nishimura discs from HMV Japan. The two I would recommend the most are the Mendelssohn Lobgesang Symphony and another entitled "The Acoustic of the Leipzig Gewandhaus" -this latter does not appear to be available at the Hungarian site. As I peruse this site however, I'm not even sure I would know what to do to purchase a disc - and the date shown is April 2006. Caveat emptor!

    I haven't the foggiest idea what the Hungarian says, but after using Google Translator, I did manage to get to an order page. It's hard to know if the site is still active, but the order page appears to be a request for a price quote, as there is no commitment to buy. Price of each disc is high at 6900 forints, which comes to almost $36.
    
    I did listen a little to samples of Franz Vorraber solo piano playing on another site. The sound quality seems promising over my tiny computer speakers. But the pianist pulls the tempos and dynamics around like salt water taffy. This is on a disc called Wiener Abend.
    
    I think I will email directly to Tatsuo Nishimura himself to see if he answers and has a cheaper source for the discs. His website is in German. Hard to figure how he sells any of his recordings.
