I kind of like this music I think - there’s something about it which intrigues. Anyone any suggestions about who to hear playing it - at the moment I’ve got Hamelin, which seems fine. But there may be some interesting alternative ideas.

Hamelin is fine. There are not many complete sets. Besides Hamelin I've also Bartoli:

This is the Berceuse:

BTW the best versions are seperate. I like Tanski's Busoni best.

Thanks for mentioning Tanski. I discovered the music through that recording -- bought on a whim in the 1980s. I no longer have the CD but I've been racking my brains trying to remember what it was!

Donohoe is excellent I think.

I forgot. Yes, Donohoe's Busoni is among the very best. Thanks for reminding me.

Now exploring Roland Pöntinen play the Indianisches Tagebuche. Well worth a listen I’d say.

But Gianluca Cascioli is better. This is good music.
