What a repertoire. It must've been a great event. I was up at that time (10 am CET) but didn't have access to my PC.

How did you like Olejniczak's playing, David?

Look - it was really quite nice hearing them all play that ancient piano and the orchestra's complete lack of vibrato (well almost complete) was amusing and, kind of nice. I loved it, it was wonderful to hear it. Loved it, Mat.

That's what I thought.

You didn't happen to record it, did you? Is there any chance to still hear it somewhere?

Sadly not, ABC Classic FM does not keep most of their broadcasts up to relisten to for copyright reasons. They are generally only licensed to broadcast an overseas concert once, sadly.
