Thank you Roger Moore and thank your for this posting.

Program music never gets old and neo classicism is still very enjoyable to listen to digitally speaking.

Loved the part where the second piano and the bass player were really listening to each other and getting into it!

It amuses me that Mischa Maisky, too, can make poor fingering decisions. Surprised he didn't end up playing it all with his second finger (he was close enough!)
