I don't know if it's one of their commercial recordings- I think they're beginning to make them- will have to check, but I see a mention of a Czech radio recording of Kapralova's piano concerto (with "label #" CRO 0577-2, rebroadcast recently on Swedish radio. Hrm. Anyway, it may be commercially available now, will have to look further. Haven't heard it yet though.
