    AWESOME piece of piano music. Can't get it outta my head. A must for any pianist who appreciates technical proficiency. Get the Rian de Waal CD "Piano Music by Leopold Godowsky" (Hyperion CDA66496).

    I'm searching the piano score of Godowsky's Passacaglia. Anybody could help me?

    Damn, all he could come up with was a measly 44 variations on the opening of Schubert's Unfinished? Hell, I come up with that many in my head just taking a quick dump. Should write them down some day.

    Well whaddya know -- just heard on the radio that it's old Franzie's birthday. Happy Bday Mister S.
    Thanks for all the wonderful tunes you gave us, especially the most glorious chamber music work ever created, your string quintet. (To all you unitiated philistines out there, get it, listen to it, revel in it.)
