Wolfgang Rubsam: most works
Grigory Sokolov's Art of Fugue
Andras Schiff's Goldbergs
What I'm really waiting for is that somebody (Badura-Skoda? Tverskaya?
Lubimov? Meniker?) should record the WTC on a fortepiano, using Czerny's
edition (dynamics, tempo changes, changed notes and all). That's
ostensibly a record of how Beethoven played the WTC. Authenticity of an
unexpected kind.
