Bortkiewicz, Preludes Op. 40

[rachfan]

I wonder if retrouvailles or anyone else might have Op. 40?

[jlh]

Which ones do you need?

[rachfan]

Hi Josh,

Of the seven, I'm especially interested in Op. 40, No. 4 in F#.  Might you have that one?

Well out of print, so i guess this is OK.

Hi thalbergmad,

Thanks so much!  As you know, some of Bortkiewicz's opus numbers are really hard to find.
I really appreciate it!

If either Thal or I is stumped, you could try to order from Bhagwan Thadani. Stay away from his recordings, though. I hear that they're horrendous.

Hi retrouvailles,

Thanks for the tip!

Indeed, he is a very helpful and nice man. I think i have just about ordered everything he had that i did not from his Bortkiewicz and Godard files.

The recordings are average, but the video on the life and music of Bortliewicz is interesting. You don't need to take aout a mortgage to buy from him either.

Hi thal,

Great info.  I'll keep BT in mind if I get stuck on sourcing some of Sergei B's music.   Good to know!
