I've had this record for several years and finally transferred it to my computer a couple years ago, but I held off on uploading it partly due to forgetting about it/getting caught up with other things, but also because it has a few minor skipping issues throughout (sorry for the slight skips throughout the recording). I assume that is a problem with this specific record I have, and not every copy of this piece ever released. However, as nobody else has ever uploaded it, it's not available on streaming services anywhere, and this year is the 50th anniversary of this recording (Wow!), I figured I'd make it available, as it is the first recording of Alkan's trio Op. 30. Fun fact: Alkan called it Piano Trio No. 1. Supposedly, he composed a second one, but it has been lost, along with some other chamber works (quintets and sextets), and his symphony for orchestra in B minor. Thankfully, his Grand Duo Concertant Op. 21 for violin/piano and Sonate de Concert Op. 47 for cello/piano survive!

Maybe if someone else has this record and it doesn't skip, you could transfer it and upload it to replace mine?

I may also transfer the other three trios on this double-record set and upload those, if there is any interest. They are all quite good, too, and performed brilliantly!

I will edit video description with the liner notes soon, as they are blurry and difficult to read in the video.
