Gieseking plays 'Gaspard De La Nuit' by Ravel
By George Bogatko

For anyone who is interested, I've put 3 Real Audio files of Walter
Gieseking playing Ravel's Gaspard De La Nuit on my WWW page.  They are
from original 78's -- cleaned up using DcArt.  Click on the pointer in
the "new" section.

This is my all-time favorite recording of this piece.  For the longest
time it was only available in the 78-rpm version, and I was fortunate
enough to find a mint "uncirculated" version in 1986.  It's undoubtedly
out on CD now, but I haven't been able to find a copy.
