Indeed, but I listened to the Bartók Concerto for Orchestra this morning, together with Lutoslawski - Mariss Jansons, ROC. Actually I suspect that Dutoit's might be a better recording. Did you go for the Mozart 225?

Have you found any more of the Morton Feldman? Just trying the Quartetto Klimt download - piano, violin, viola, cello.
I'll probably play Neither later in the week.

I couldn’t listen to all my current Mozart CDs if I lived to a hundred!

Talk to ts about Feldman - I have quite a lot of his stuff already.

Like your team’s defence. I see.

Alright, not exactly loads.....

Five at 99p, and a couple more at a couple of quid, although the For Bunita Marcus has been cheap for ages.Not sure if the others have.

Thanks for the extra information. I already had the Bunita Marcus - for 69p a few years ago. I have now added the others at 99p each.

Currently there's also this by Anthony Braxton for 79p - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Composition...5ZM1PTD5TSFB8B

fhg seems to have managed to get through WAM225 already. So how many do you have? I haven't counted how many Mozart CDs I've got - but at a quick guess it might be 4-500, plus I have downloads.

Not sure if you're interested in Braxton - I've heard some of his music before - perhaps more in a modern jazz genre.

The Klimt quartet download seems to have echoes of Debussy's Des pas sur la neige.

I was being flippant about Mozart, probably only about 150 CDs and I can’t think of any downloads.

I like Braxton a lot and I just downloaded Composition 363B+ for 79p, so thanks very much for bringing it to our attention.

I'm playing the Bartok soon so I listened to my recordings, Adam Fischer, Rattle and Reiner. Although it's an old recording, the Reiner was a clear winner. Even in the Bartok, the recording was quite good enough and the performance is superb.

I came across a 10CD Lieder collection with Mitsuko Shirai from Amazon for about £20 post paid. Not having any recordings by this highly respected artist, I have taken the opportunity to remedy the situation.

I've had this set a fair while with a few of the discs still unplayed. Not that I've been put off by what I've heard: this is certainly an estimable lieder partnership (husband and wife) and the price is certainly very attractive. But I can't say that anything in it blew away all the competition. Must have another dip into it though.

Bargains is now in a Bargains/CDExchange sub-forum based on Record Review (as suggested). I haven't quite got this right as Bargains was a thread and CD Exchange was a sub-forum. But you can access 'Bargains' now directly from the Bargains/CD Exchange link on the homepage. The Bargains thread will stay at/near the top of the list as long as new posts are added, and CD Exchange can be added to but will be most effective if a new thread with a clear title is started with each new offer. Does this help?
