I am not familiar with Medtner's music at all.

A pianist I know described it as "Rachmaninov without the tunes".

I actually like it a lot.

Harsh! I heard some of the solo works at a recital recently and it encouraged me to dig out this disc again. I think the music is really great, and the performances here are full of passion. I'd recommend it.

I do have it Sean. It is very good, but not qualitively superior to the other Bohm version (BPO?) to any significant extent.

This is a really beautiful production in every way!

Fergus, who are the performers on that recording? It's a gorgeous cover I must say.

Sorry Seán, I posted the wrong image! Yes it is gorgeous in every detail from packaging to production!

With René Jacobs at the helm, I wouldn't expect anything less.
