I've started exploring Szymanowski's music, both orchestral and for solo piano. So far I'm finding the orchestral more interesting than the piano.
I've been listening to the NAXOS recordings. What else is out there that challenges these performances/recordings? Suggestions anyone?

- Oh man, yes: the Lutoslawski is a favorite. Dohnanyi's on CD w/Cleveland is white hot. nt - jdaniel@jps.net 22:55:32 04/22/12 (0)
