I have Sir Georg Solti with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. That one is also Ravel's transscription from piano to orchestra, but others have done so as well. I heard a transscription by a Finnish guy once on the radio - very good, too. I have heard this live a couple of times also. I heard the piano version in one of our old castles some years ago, in the knights hall. Just when the final movement, "The Great Gates of Kiev" was played, a thunderstorm broke out - fitted the music beautifully! :-) Fine music, Wayne. The only version I don't have is the one for organ - gotta see if I can find that one somewhere (now I got a sub!).
