Thanks again, Justin. The tempi are definitely on the leisurely side, which robs the work of quite a lot of its charm unfortunately.

A brave undertaking, and it's always good to have more Raff available to listen to - but the tempi are pretty leaden, which rather spoils this glorious piece.

A more lively live performance (Dorian Quintet, Roundtop Quintet - recorded in concert 17 June 2000) has been added to the Downloads Section:
