Downloaded this one from Dacapo records today. Very interesting music. Newly invented instrument mezzo saxophone featured performed by Anders Koppel's son Benjamin Koppel. Anders Koppel's father Herman was a student of Carl Nielsen's. :)

No, no. It was extremely cheap and therefore within budget. I could do with another piano version and Brendel usually fits the bill in his own steady way...
