If you have the Chandos 30 box, as I do (and very recommendable) you certainly won't want Chandos 40 since 30 of the 40 discs are identical to the previous issue. Missed opportunity?

Originally posted by cloughie View PostLooks a good set for me in terms only a few duplications. I can understand the logic of repeating the 30 for the 40, but perhaps they should have offered a 10 disc supplementary box as well, however, with the great catalogue they have, why on earth do they have to duplicate two discs which are in the Jarvi Lifetime box?

I've noticed another upcoming box - one which seems to me very welcome and indeed long overdue: A 12 disc Ernst Haeflliger Edition. (Details of contents at jpc). At about £3 a disc I would count it as a bargain. He is one my favourite tenors and I certainly have a few LPs but I have hardly any CDs on which he performs. His performance of Schumann's Dichterliebe with Erik Werba was my first recording of that work about 50 (!) years ago (coupled with Beethoven's An die ferne Geliebte). I've been waiting for a digital reissue for a very long time and shall certainly be snapping this one up.

Berlin Phil own label VERY cheap at 7 digital.
Box sets (Rattle Sibelius and Beethoven, Harnoncoirt Schubert, Adams) about £12 for 24 bit. Petrenko Tchaikovsky 6 also very reasonable
Same site has the Jurowski Tchaikovsky and 10th anniversary boxes for £6.50. The latter takes some finding - it came up under Tracks rather than albums. Both 16 bit only.

Now downloaded. If you want to search for the BPO sets, enter Berliner Philharmoniker in the search box.Last edited by HighlandDougie; 14-07-19, 09:30.

for the Adams and:
for the Harnoncourt/Schubert. I haven't checked on the Rattle sets but I'm fairly certain that e.classical also sells them. They also sell the Jurowski Tchaikovsky set but, not, alas the 10 years set so I'll just have to do without the notes. At the price, I will not be complaining.

Prompted by Richard F’s mention of the Haitink/Mahler (including BluRay) at Amazon at a lowish price and if you are an Amazon Prime member, some DG/Decca bargains to be found today. Not at ridiculously low prices, but the Big Bach Box is £200 - and Lise Davidsen’s 4LS is £3.90, should one want to confirm (or not) Iain Burnside’s damning of it with faint praise on Saturday’s BaL.
