That is a splendid presentation, I expect that JEG would nor accept anything less, well done and enjoy.

Thank you Simon. That is a really lovely purchase and very much in keeping with the quality and integrity of the original issues. Well may you treasure it sir!

Thank you. I just listened to the disc you recommended Fergus and it was a pure pleasure. I'll aim for Sean's suggestions when I can face a bit more tragedy!

Enjoy your journey! It seems like every set of the cantatas has its own unique flavor and Gardiner certainly comes highly recommended. I am hoping for the price to settle down, but perhaps I am fooling myself? I am doing the same journey at the moment but under the guidance of Harnoncourt/Leonhardt. It is mesmerizing and certainly a perplexing maze of musical creativity.
