All very fine - and most attractive. But I WISH someone would record his 2 piano concertos. I have scores of both - the second is in MS

Aren't Hyperion interested, Gareth?

To be honest, I don't know. I'll enquire the next time I speak to Mike. But since Audite have recorded a lot of his music, it may be that they will do so.

The CD of piano trios is simply delightful. More comments to follow...

A bit of disappointment, I think.   Am I correct in assuming that the only thing new on this CD that hasn't been released by someone before is the 1835 trio??

Missed it.  Would like to have heard the Huber.

I missed it as well - I must have wrongly assumed it would be available to listen to later, but as it is from a new CD, that turned out to be an error. The all Huber cello and piano CD has come out on a small label from Basel: http://www.bmn-medien.eu
I can't properly access their website from my Mac, though...

I tried to get into that site and no matter what I click on, I get the same screen which explains what a blu-ray disc is.......???  Translation did not help.

Me too. Very frustrating.

This version of the website works: http://www.bonitz-music-network.eu/ (http://www.bonitz-music-network.eu/)
I contacted them and they replied very quickly and said they would look into the apparent problems. It seems you still need to download the entire catalogue to get track lists and other information, but the (hyper)links work.

Thanks.  I went to that site but can't seem to find any reference to a huber recording.....

Worldcat (http://www.worldcat.org/title/works-for-violoncello-piano/oclc/876226226) suggests one exists from this year, on that label, and with the Huber work (not the Franck) and the mentioned performers...

Yes, it's there on the label website, on the left just below the March 2014 catalogue (the CD is on page 4 of that catalogue, plus a link to the second movement on vimeo) - and yes, it is  all Huber and perhaps ought to be in a new thread. There's also a special exhibition about Huber at the Museum Kleines Klingental in Basel (with a series of concerts) until 31 August.
