      Home of the famous Daily Mail song. My favourite is the Palindromic Sketch which is a masterpiece.
      Quite liked that one.

      The snag with the originally mentioned site with all the CDs could be that it's probably dodgy re rights issues, and the sound quality may not be too great either. Apart from that looks great!

        I didn't mean to quench the OP's enthusiasm for the site (and Petrushka was magnanimous enough not to take it that way) but surely the whole point of YouTube is that it is primarily a visual medium, and while fascinating it may be to hear Giulini conducting the same snippets, unless there is a corresponding video or filmic element I find the experience somewhat frustrating.

        Tellingly, that famous black and white clip of Giulini conducting the Dies Irae is missing from the comparitive versions, instead we get some strange children's hentai drawings. There are a whole cluster of whimsical pot pourris with titles such as 'beautiful melodies in piano music' where we stare, for some peculiar reason, at a reproduction of a Deutche Grammophon logo.

        And most Frustrating of all when you click on "Klemperer's Mahler (1951Live) Sound quality comparison" it says: "This video contains content from UMG. It is not available in your country."
