Markov's 24 caprices

March 20, 2005 at 07:58 AM · I don't know, but I'd love to see it!

March 20, 2005 at 08:32 AM · I made a VHS of the second part (13-24) as it was broadcasted on the french TV in 1993, and I really like it a lot ! As I am eager to have it on DVD, I asked last september on Markov's site, and got the answer that Warner would release it "next season". I asked again this March and got again the "next season release" answer.

I feel that if many of us ask for this DVD, there can be some push to have it effectively released "this season" ?

It's actually being sold in the UK since the price is in pounds. I converted the $16.95 British price tag to $32.04 American dollars. Go here to buy:

Unfortunately I missed his performances at the Bard music festival last weekend.

September 15, 2006 at 01:27 PM · I pre ordered my copy at www.kultur.com for 29.99.

It is available here in the US 9-26-2006.

In the meantime I picked up Itzhak Perlman's recording of the 24 Caprices and am finding myself continually floored.
