Are his Piano concertos good enough to tempt Hyperion, provided they can be located?

[eschiss1]

BNF has manuscripts of two of his piano concertos (and his concerto for horn), it seems, so I'm not sure locating them is the problem so much as "are they in playable shape" etc. But absent having heard them, etc., can't answer that question personally

Funny that people think only of Hyperion when recording piano concerto works. In this case Dutton was the company that discovered this composer, invested in some great players and has made his works available, so maybe we should hope that they record some more rather than anyone else. Just saying.

Indeed. So, I ask again - how would this happen? Could the players have suggested him to Dutton?

[eschiss1]

Maybe?
In passing there's piano (solo) music by him on Youtube uploaded a decade ago by P. Sear, and more importantly  a recording of on youtube (from cd? will check) of the Lacombe 3rd trio from -8- years ago (which Mark already pointed out)- also part of the suite for piano and orchestra- so between IMSLP and that, some of the music is out there.

Just noticed Dutton has another disc of his music- piano quartet, cello sonata...

Anyone know if Louis Lacombe, whose French piano trios are from about a generation earlier , was related to Paul?
