Might be worth a punt anyway at that price. If anyone does get those, perhaps they could keep us up to date after a listen.

A pianist probably not so well known in these parts - for fairly obvious reasons after reading her biography. A short sample (Qobuz) suggests very clean playing, decent accompaniment by the orchestra, but the orchestra is recorded at slightly too low a level relative to the piano.
This could still be worth having for anyone less over encumbered by Mozart concertos than Bryn.

Following on from checking out the Annerose Schmidt Mozart recordings, I noted a number of Milestones of a Legend series at am.uk for around £9-£11 each. Typically about 10 CDs - artists include Monique Haas, Clara Haskil, Annie Fischer, Leonid Kogan, Francescatti, Ferras etc. Worth checking out? Comments? Any really good ones?
Also might help to bring the total of each order over £20 to get the free postage!

Originally posted by Bryn View PostInteresting. They look suspiciously like Membran boxes under a different name. If so, the audio quality is likely to be somewhat unpredictable. Sometimes they are pretty good, but by no means always. I've taken a risk on the Arthur Grumiaux, Wilhelm Backhaus, Clara Haskil boxes.
The odd thing was it ended up in my junk mail - and was written in German - yet I thought I ordered via the UK Amazon site. I checked again, and it is indeed from one of the market place sellers
Business Name:Music-Shop Online GmbH
Business Type:GmbH
etc. so no problem really as the items and amounts roughly match my expectations, but I was slightly unnerved by this for a few seconds.
I do sometimes explicitly order from German sites - but I wasn't expecting this after ordering via am.uk
