This previously unreleased 1987 live recording of the great Czech pianist Ivan Moravec performing in Prague was re-discovered in the Supraphon record label archives after 28 years, and managed to pass the test of Moravec's notorious and uncompromising self-censorship. Moravec's death shortly after this rediscovery in July 2015 has catalyzed the release of this collection forming as it does a poignant last testament to this legendary pianist's legacy.
