Meanwhile, Lupu's Brahms (a recent discovery) seems unlikely to be surpassed, for me.

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

I fully agree Radu Lupu is wonderful in Brahms piano music. Lupu is still playing in concert and I hope that I will see him one day. I was told recently by Riccardo Chailly that Lupu still has the bushy beard but now it is white. Age comes to us all even me who is given to loosing hair rather than whiteness.
