OP CONCORD RECORDS verschenen 42 solo albums en 10 duo albums van pianisten uit de Maybeck Recital Hall in Berkeley Cal.

 In elke uitzending lopen we ongeveer 8 albums door.

 Helaas ontbraken eerst nog wat albums aan onze verzameling. (in 2024 hebben we alles in huis)

 Jammer dat Concord een beetje eenzijdige keus gemaakt heeft uit beschikbare jazz pianisten.

 Ook de in de zaal aanwezige YAMAHA klavieren wekken weinig bewondering. 

In deze uitzending wel veel mooie muziek, zoals van pianist Dick Hyman. 

Als intermezzo jazz zangeres IRENE KRAL.

 01 - The Most Beautiful Girl in the World -Joanne Brackeen (1938)(volume 1)
