Isokani, you're the performer on that disc, right? You're da man! 8-) ;)
Toccata Classics has great policies!

I am indeed the performer!
Next will be Sabaneyev - I recorded the sonata last week. I think there's just enough room left on the CD for the Etude-Nocturne that I'll record next month.

Dear Isokani,
I wait this cd to long time!! Hope that by the end of the year will be available. I would you ask which opus number will be present... Op.15, 16 and then?

Mr Powell, your Eiges CD is top-drawer stuff! I'm not familiar with his compositions at all, but he now has another follower in me, thanks to your efforts.

It absolutely is top drawer and I've only listened to half of it so far. Am very glad to see Eiges start to get his due.
Update: Listened to the whole CD....wonderful interpretations.
