Joyce Hatto Identifications edit / delete

The site that lists what each Hatto CD is copied from. This took a surprisingly long time to find when I was looking for it last night - the Hatto scandal is long enough ago now that most of the sites describing it are only on archive.org...

This dissertation presents the results of a comprehensive study of the construction of these two harps."
