Serge Prokofiev / Lazar Berman
Piano Concerto No. 1 / Toccata
Piano Sonata No. 8
I did this digitization for my roommate, who wanted the record on CD. It doesn't seem available commercially and the performances are worth putting into digital form. The information I found about the recording from musicwebinternational.com indicates the original recording is from 1956 with the original Hungaroton LP release in the 1970's :
"Lazar Berman (piano)/András Kórodi/Hungarian State Orchestra (rec. 1956) ( + Toccata, Liszt: Transcendental Etudes Nos. 8 and 11, Funérailles, Hungarian Rhapsody No. 9 and Rhapsodie Espagnole) HUNGAROTON HCD 31685 (1997) (original LP release: HUNGAROTON SHLX 90048) (1970s)
The waveforms look like the original was recorded at too high a level, but it does not sound obviously distorted. I'm not a sound technician, so I have no explanation, but it sounds reasonably good. I didn't do much but some basic declicking and removing a bit of rumble.
