A bit of confusion has crept in. I was wondering about recordings of
live recitals or off-air broadcasts. I have most of Kapustin's
commercial recordings which are for the most part currently available.
Links have appeared (and thanks very much for these) to transfers of
LP recordings that Kapustin made in the 60s and 70s but again I wonder
what live gigs or broadcasts NK was doing and whether anyone recorded
them.
Thanks,
Rob

they are generally not available in the West, at least not yet. I have
read that he is the best interpreter of his own music. Perhaps someone
with more knowledge of the subject will post here.
