Wow, and I thought I was the only one who remembered this broadcast...
Are you speaking of the encore that he played at the end? If I recall correctly, the piece was a movement from the "Five Pieces from Little Suite", by Borodin.
Oddly enough, I have the sheet music, along with the receipt from when I originally purchased the music, in front of me right now. Published by:
Israel Brass Woodwind Publications P.O. Box 2811 Holon 58128 Israel
If I recall correctly, he played the third piece (Serenade) as an encore.
It looks like I got it from Robert King, but this was back in 1992, so I can't guarantee that it is still in print. Feel free to contact me if you need more info.

I have a tape, made from an off the air broadcast, of Hermann Baumann playing a recital at the Frick Collection in NYC sometime in the early to mid- 1980's. After renditions of the Strauss no. 1, the Beethoven Sonata and the Krol Ladatio, there follows a work that I cannot identify. I initially thought that it was a Russian song transcription, but many of the features of the piece make me think that it is a horn piece that I am not familiar with. Does anyone have information on the works played on this concert? Failing this, I would be willing to send a file made from this tape to anyone acquainted with Herr Baumann's recital repertoire in hopes of making an ID.
Hopefully,
Peter Hirsch
