Ivan Moravec on Connoisseur Society cd’s

[Dimitri van der Werf]

Connoisseur Society released two of their Ivan Moravec recordings on cd in the 80’s.
1. Chopin’s preludes, opus 28.
2. A Debussy - Ravel recital: Pour le piano, Sonatine, some preludes.

The Chopin Preludes (his first recording) has been reissued by VAI. But the remastering doesn’t sound as nice as on the CS-CD. I regularly search for them on Amazon and on Ebay. But they are never for sale (simply to good to get rid of I guess).

If someone has spare copies, I am happy to buy them. A lossless upload is also much appreciated.

Supraphon's reissue of the CS Debussy/Ravel is here c/w Franck: https://www.supraphonline.cz/album/412-franck-ravel-debussy-klavirni-skladby. Afaik the physical CD is still available, as are lossy and lossless downloads. I have the earlier recording of the Chopin Preludes only in the VAI reissue. Frankly, I was unaware that *any* of Moravec's CS LPs had been reissued on CS CD (as opposed to VAI & Supraphon).

I have in my notes that the Debussy/Ravel was supposedly
released on Connoisseur Society as CD-4013. I've never seen it.

I am not aware of the Chopin Preludes being released on CD
by CS.

Connoisser Society also issued Moravec Beethoven Sonatas 8 & 14 on LP - great sound, noisy pressings

Are you sure they exist? Discogs has no mention of them.

Discogs is not comprehensive. But I suspect the preludes
were not released on CD by CS. As always, I could be wrong.
