^^ I rate Maazel's VPO Sibelius cycle quite highly so hopefully that set will be of a similar interpretive standard Matt. I am pleased to see that Bax purchase also!

Claus, my good fellow, to state that you have bought copies of the above without listing conductors and orchestras sets you out a tease. I would dearly love to know the performers involved particularly on the Smetana and Ravel recordings.

They are yery enjoyable performances.

Sorry didn't notice that info was absent from the amazon list. Here they are:



The Ravel and Smetana is something I would never get (or discover) so it is purely on seeing others joy over listening to them. I have the Ravel on here with the kids and I like it!

^^ Claus, that selection of discs is wonderful to see! The Ravel, Smetana and Mozart symphony recordings are of the highest order. I also have the Karajan recording you list and I think that's pretty good too. Rorem, I know very little of but I hope you enjoy all those discs....
