While I cannot answer the question about the piano player of the recording of the Ķepītis concerto, I do have a comment about the piece itself. I also got it as his Piano Concerto No. 1. After studying the Ķepītis work list provided by the Latvian Music Information Centre, I tend to believe that the piece we have must actually be his Piano Concerto No. 3.
Here is the reason: the Latvian MIC gives the following information about Ķepītis' three piano concertos:
Piano Concerto No. 1 in E Major (1937)
Piano Concerto No. 2 in C Major (1953) – Duration: 37 minutes
Piano Concerto No. 3 in A flat Major "Children's Concerto" (1973)
The concerto we have is definitely in A flat Major, and in its lighter manner and with a total duration of just about 13 minutes, the title "Children's Concerto" would perfectly make sense. I therefore assume that it should actually be the Third Concerto we have. Of course, full evidence would still be needed.
