Can anyone help me identify what piece Cherkassky plays starting at around 0:06 in this video?

Hey, it was worth a try! I'll keep looking. It might have even just been an improvisation or something.

Thanks.

I believe it's Lennox Berkeley Prelude in B flat. Here's a full recording (the piece starts at 4:55) :)
