In response to an email, Bissie has confirmed that he's just recorded Beethoven PC#2 with Sudbin & the Tapiola Sinfonietta under Osmo Vänskä. No 1 will be recorded next year.

He also wrote that Sudbin is also booked up for Rach 2+3 with the BBC SO, but, unfortunately, only in 2016.

The Vänskä/Sudbin concert with Beethoven #2 (from night before recording date) is available here:

Surprisingly Sudbin played with score and playing was a bit nervous, but Vänskä was awesome.

My chief producer, Rob Suff, tells me that this will be at least on par with the Minnesota recordings. He is as difficult to make happy as it is to make me shut up about Sudbin...
