Bargains

[ferneyhoughgeliebte]

Dammit, this becoming an expensive month!

A slight caveat to all prospective emptors - there are only three of the six excellent Hamburg Symphonies (with a couple of Concertos between). I would've preferred the complete set. Still working my way through this box: a splendid bargain by any standards.

When's the great day, ferney? Best of bests, whenever

Cheers, ami - 'twas on the Tuesday that I posted, when I duly ticked Tchaikovsky off my "composers I've lived longer than" list.

Thanks, TS. A gap in my collection, now filled.

There can't be too many of those left. I expect Queldryk in the Medieval section is still empty.

Is that the evil composer genius in "Game of Thrones" or would that be the star of the Old Hall Manuscript? If the latter, no, a gap to be filled - as in, is this a good buy?

I knew someone who had a chain mail vest once.
