I'm looking to get your oppinions on the best solo piano recordings available. Style or genre is not important as long as the recording is pristine, clear, open and in your oppinion AMAZING! Please if you can, state artist, label, etc., so we audiogoner's can buy 'em!

Alkan - Concerto for Solo Piano (Marc-Andre Hamelin; Hyperion CDA67569). I picked this up some time ago and just listened to it recently. A stunning work; the 3rd movement can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKQO2rRv0VA&feature=related

The pianist is Francesco Napoleoni. Very nice performance, would have sounded even better if it had been played not on an electric piano but on a Steinway Grand.
Thanks Mapman for awakening my curiosity.....
