Andrew didn't mention that you can also download, free, the score.
Indeed – when I downloaded the FLAC version it came as part of the 'package'. Had to be a tiny bit more resourceful in getting some cover art, however – as in going to the site's pictures page and downloading a picture!

Hi Andrew!
Thank you very much for bringing this to our attention. I don't know anything about this performer, but I'll look into her.
Best wishes,
Petra

Is it certain this site is safe?
My PC was clear of any infection at the start of yesterday's session and I only visited and dowloaded from this one new site. The FLAC download wouldn't play on my Windows Vista so I deleted it then ran a quick scan and Malware (1 item) was found.

Not aware of any problems with this site – have accessed several times to download both versions of the music, pictures, etc, and no malware showing up on my computer.

Anyone who is interested in following this music with a score, but does not feel very confident doing so, might be interested to know that you can play the music on your computer with the score in front of you, and a cursor follows the music as it goes along. So there's no possibility of getting lost!
