I wish someone would record Heller's piano sonatas.

Record them well, or record them again? I think most of them have been recorded?

I have only found the recording of Sonata Nr. 2 Op.65

Yes, Eric. Record them well is what I should have written. I do not enjoy John Kersey's soulless performances.

I wouldn't at all mind good new recordings of his works.

The 4th sonata was recorded too, awhile back by Sergio
Marengoni on Arcobaleno.
