Earl Wild
Rachmaninoff: Piano Concerto No. 2
Jascha Horenstein conducting,
The Royal Philharmonic

Chesky Records

Bought this over 30 years ago, just deep cleaned.....
Listening to side one, what strikes me is.
there is the dynamics when called for yet there is also a sense of mellowness otherwise.

Side two up next.....
Side two starts out dynamically...however it isn't a wide soundstage. Mostly everything is centered.
The piano hasn't wavered once. I credit this to the recently installed SOTA system
