Re: favorite recordings of Brahms 2nd sonata

Well, I think I just heard tonight my LEAST favorite recording...

On Performance Today on NPR, they were playing a version performed by Emmanuel Pahud and Helene Grimaud. Grimaud's piano playing was really neat, but as you may know, Pahud is a FLUTIST!!! He's a really great flutist, but I was in awe that someone had arranged this for flute!!! Really weird, to say the least. Lots of strange octave transposition breaks. I don't know if it was in the original key or not (sorry no perfect pitch here) and I was in the car so I didn't have a reference...

Weird, weird, weird!!
