A nice way to build up a good collection for relatively little money....well done!

Really pleased to have been of help, my friend... the first two are simply must haves... Sarum Chant is slightly more of an acquired taste, I posted for Fergus & Simon who, like me, are in to Renaissance & Early Music... you'll find the sound world quite different, although all three of us will sincerely hope you grow into it.. ;-))

Some interesting box sets ..

[includes Beethoven on 85 cd's for 40 euro -- I have no idea of the quality of the performances or the recordings].

Some of those are tempting. Occasionally the Brilliant boxes are, well, brilliant.

I think its everything ..

James, that is a good set. I have the Guarneri string quartet cycle and I like it a lot. The Brendel Sonata cycle is very good and the Haskil and Grumiaux piano & violin cycle is truly marvellous. The Symponies are performed by Masur and the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, I am not familiar with their cycle, but the Gewandhaus are a wonderful outfit.

Enjoy.
