Surprisingly, no recordings of 'Evocation' exist. There have been a few recordings of Coeck's masterpiece 'Constellations' notably by Simon Dinnigan and Gino Herman. The great Belgian guitarist Gino Herman recorded a number of Coeck's works on 'Gino Herman plays Armand Coeck' but, as mentioned, this is no longer available and 'Evocation' wasn't included on the recording anyway.
The good news is that there is a new CD of Coeck's music played by Gino Herman and others. The title is 'Armand Coeck: Contemporary Guitar Music' and is available from www.guitare-diffusion.com. Six of the tracks are solo guitar pieces: Séraphîta, Carnaval, Capriccio, Requiem, Studie no. 1 and Avondzang.
There is also a CD available with the terrific set of seven new pieces for guitar written by Coeck called "Roadbook for the Young Guitarist". The book and CD is available from www.guitare-diffusion.com. There are samples of this work played by Antoon Vandeborght at both guitare-diffusion and at: http://www.antoonvandeborght.com. It really is fabulous stuff.
