but a real (midi-controlled) piano, i assume?

i seem to remember Herma or one of those pieces has moments where there are 3 simultaneous notes low, middle, and high on the keyboard where a human would have to leave out a note.

Does anyone know about this new recording on NEOS of Xenakis piano music performed by Midi?  On the package it says (unplayable by human hands) but I have some recordings of folks playing some of those pieces.....as far as I know they are human and have hands.  What's up with that?

Also, there is a new recording of Kraanerg on Mode boasting a "restored" tape.  Anyone heard that?  Is it significantly better than previous recordings?
