Purely Coincidental?
Andrew Rose from Pristine
Audio has a music degree from the City University of London,
and spent 14 years as a sound engineer at BBC Radio in
London.
One of the major
characters in the recent Hatto story is from this school:
• 3rd CD identified by Gramophone
group on or before 15 Feb 2007 was not found
using iTunes. Andrew Rose of Pristine
Audio verified first two results by
expert analysis of audio content. He
also discovered Godowsky/Chopin Studies
to be a copy of a previous commercial release
by Carlo Grante (Later it was reported by a contributor to rec.music.recording.classical that one of the tracks, #3, is by
Marc Hamelin)
These [Studies] are so taxing
even for virtuosi that only five have ventured to record the
entire set: Geoffrey Douglas Madge, Carlo Grante, Marc-André Hamelin
and Joyce Hatto.

So: Godowsky is the best choice for a manual search for a
match.
