I wonder if anybody happened to catch today's broadcast from Radio Clasica de Espana of a concert commemorating the 140th anniversary of Stanislaw Moniuszko's death?  It was recorded last September for Polish Radio, and apparently rebroadcast on the Spanish station this morning -- I saw the notice on Operacast too late, unfortunately. 

There were a number of premieres, including his ballet music for Nicolai's "Merry Wives of Windsor," selections from the critical edition of his most famous opera "Halka," and Noskowski's adaptations of a number of Moniuszko's songs, "Pearls of Moniuszko."  I doubt if any of these have been recorded.

Tantalizing stuff... if some lucky soul did hear and record the concert, please share it if possible!
