    Does this break the record for the shortest ever piece on BAL - well under 8 minutes?

    What a service Alpen is providing for us on forthcoming BALs. Thanks!

    I have in my "library" Robert Casadesus, Alicia De Larrocha and Cecile Ousset. I've never compared them, but I will!

    Looks as though only Ousset of these is on the market currently.
