    I have heard five recordings of Franz Liszt's "Totentanz" so far:
    Alfred Brendel, Jorge Bolet, Joshua Pierce, <unknown Russian>, and
    Kristian Zimerman. The best of these I judged to be Kristian Zimerman's performance.
    Now, I am wondering if there are any other performances of "Totentanz"
    of similar or higher calibre?
    If you also happen to know how I can find these on CD, I would be very grateful.
    Thanking you in advance,
    Iian Neill.
