This is a request for an upload of one of the most important broadcasts of my life: a complete recording of Pierre Boulez’s “Pil Selon Pil” for soprano and orchestra, performed by Eva Maria Rogner and the Southwest German Radio Symphony Orchestra, conducted by the composer, recorded at the 1962 Donaueschingen Musical Festival. Although Boulez has recorded the work three times, none of these has the passion and fire of this world premiere performance. Maybe someone out there has a recording to share. It can be streamed but not downloaded. Thanks.
David Federman: here you can download Boulez piece.

Just click on the arrow to the right of the player. Unfortunately, the file is in MP3, but no copy is bad until you get a better one, say out there.
Greetings from Osorno, Chile.
