There was a version of this on YouTube until recently, but it was taken down due to copyright. Anyone know of any other copies of this around that aren't $700+?!? It was a really charming video with Solti playing parts on the piano and talking about the music. There was also some rehearsal footage as well.

Heh, just be patient and you'll find one. No one will pay $700 for that.

As an aside, I never understood Solti's thought that the opening to Pictures should be played with the piano in mind since it is a transcription of a piano piece. Seems to me like you would play what you think the music should be like and not limit yourself to what instrument it may have been written for.

Solti is famous and I am not so what do I know. Well, what I do know is that I rarely prefer Solti's interpretations.
