Like all Levine/CSO recordings except the Beethoven Piano Concertos with Brendel, the Prokofiev 5th was done in the summer during the Ravinia Festival. That's where it was rehearsed and performed, then they went, in this case to Medinah Temple to record it. The question is - did Gene's leave extend through the summer season, or was he back by then. So far, I haven't heard that Gene's online. But Floyd's email address is easy enough to find. Just ask him. He'll be glad to tell you one way or the other.
