Actually the first three sets are listed.
They are - The Vienna Recordings 1946 - 1949 and The Beethoven Symphonies with the Philharmonia (which includes as a bonus a previously unissued Stereo version of the 1955 ninth).
I am looking forward very much to these reissues - there were so many problems with EMI's 88 disc box - it's flimsyness - mistakes in the booklet - 4 missing bars from the Bruckner 7 and so on. Also with 88 discs and the smallest thinnest booklet imaginable it is the devil of a job to find anything. There is no index - just discs 1 to 88 and there track listings.
Therefore if a desired CD is required one must trawl through the mini booklet to find it every time.
I shall take the greatest of pleasure junking this box once I have acquired the Warner boxes.
