The other recording I have of the Brahms sonatas played by Harold Wright
has *Harris Goldsmith* playing piano, *not* Rudolph Serkin. If there is a
"Marlboro" recording of these sonatas with Serkin, it would (should) be
legendary - does anyone know if it exists? Wright/Goldsmith is on Musical
Heritage Society, 412173H, is available from MHS, 1710 Highway 35, Ocean,
NJ 07712. It is a reissue of a budget label from 1966, recorded 8/31 and
9/1 of that year at the Manhattan Towers Hotel NYC (info from the CD case)
