Some of the best music I have for the Disklavier came from PG 
Music's "The Pianist" series. It's a low-cost collection of 500+ 
classical piano songs, played live by decent pianists. (Some of the 
selections are marginal, but most are good, and some are very good.) 
Unfortunately, for some strange reason, PG Music dropped this 
product!

The best quality Disklavier recordings I've heard have come from 
Wayne Stahnke's "Live Performance" company. These are exceptionally 
good.

I have about 30 Disks from Yamaha, and they're mostly crap. Some are 
unlistenable (like their "Beatles" disk.)
