Donald Isler released a lovely recording of a recital performance by Constance Keene on his label, KASP Records. I ordered it a while back and just now got around to listening to it.

Keene plays with very prominent melodic projection. It's quite nice to hear, and her performances of those old chestnuts, Chopin's Ballades, are definitive. There are some interesting, lesser known pieces to satisfy the curious, like several by MacDowell.

But the highlight for me was Gluck's Melody from Orfeo, so lovely in a transcription by Abram Chasins to be worth the price of the CD all by itself.

The way I learned how to cook was by committing to eating whatever I made. Every night I had dinner, I learned my lesson.

You learn how to record the same way. Record every day. Commit to listening to it. You'll get it. For the same reason.
