i have those pieces on sheetmusic, but i have not found any recordings of skalkottas' music, outside of his piano concertos and a few orchestral pieces. from what i heard, it was very interesting. the sheetmusic also looked very interesting, particularly the op 3 suite. would anyone, by some off chance, have some audio of skalkottas' solo piano music?

I have recordings of the First Suite, Piano Concerto No. 1, Piano Concerto No. 3, 32 Pieces for Piano and the 4 Studies.  next time I see you on AIM I'll send them your way.

Skalkottas's discography is, slowly but surely, on the increase these days - and not before time, either. BIS is perhaps one of the more active record companies involved in this, but I believe that there are others. It's always a problem when most of the works of as prolific a composer remain barely known until almost half a century after his death.
