Sam, I strongly suspect the compression of the track, but it did sound as though intonation may have been off a little. As I said though, I suspect the recording more than the playing. Especially when compared to the lovely playing in the other pieces, particularly the Vivaldi!

Neil-

Thank you for your very kind, obervant, and thoughtful words. I have to say that I didn't know that the Vivaldi would be such a "hit".

I did try to find your email address here but was unable to...

Peace,
Sam
