indeed, we are spoilt for choice in the digital age, aren't we?

at this price however, I think I'd have gone for the one which was still shrink-wrapped.. ;-)

Thank you. I have the Tallis and one of the Palestrinas already, so I ordered the rest.

^^ I hope the condition is satisfactory for you gents... the Palestrina and Josquin arrived this morning, and both were in VG condition indeed.

Its 50 euros for 18 CD's .. I bought 3 CD's from the set 2 weeks ago and they cost 25 euros.

Undeniably a bargain, it looks like a really great project, but I'm just not sure I need 18 CDs of John Cage's piano music!!

I hope that it doesn't contain hundreds of versions of his nonsenical 4'30", I'm only joking!

That does look like a very interesting set and is one my young lad might be interested in, thanks for the info.
