I'd completely forgotten I'd even ordered this:
but it just arrived. I'd ordered (and paid a tiny sum for) a used copy, but this has arrived shrink-wrapped and with what look like original stickers on the wrapping. Good result!

my research leads me to the conclusion that along with the Italiano, this is the most highly regarded of the complete sets of SQs. It also contains some Divertimenti and other assortment pieces, over 7 very full CDs. I'm looking forward to it v much.
