Sugarbrie...Exactly the point. Piano is an excellent test, but you must have a superb recording to start with.
Piano that sounds like a piano
Some time back several of us agreed that it's hard to find a piano recording that really sounds right. Well, I have found one that's better than most.
SACD PentaTone PTC 5186 024 Beethoven Sonatas, Mari Kodama.
This is a new recording (Jan 2003) by the audiophile recording outfit Polyhymnia. It is a hybrid, so you can play the Redbook/SACD game if you like.
Nice music too.
