Yesterday I learned something amazing. Love Bruckner and I own Bruckner's 4,6,8,9's conducted by Daniel Baremboim conducted by the Chicago Orchestra. They are all among my favorite recordings of those pieces. Apparently, the complete cycle was recorded in the 70's and 80's, released and forgotten since. For years I have been dreaming of them re-releasing the complete cycle. Well yesterday while looking on Amazon I learned that it has now been released:
For around $45 which is very good for such a great set. I am soooo tempted right now but probably will have to wait.
Matt.
And may the rest of your dreams also come true Matt!!!

I realy like the Amadeus Quartet and their recordings of the Haydn Quartets they are very good indeed. Are you enjoying those performances Darren?

I am hugely impressed Sean. I have a smattering of AQ recordings and they sound
exactly the way I like to to hear string quartet music played. The Mozart cycle is definitely one I want to get at some point (I have their quintet recordings, and they are masterful also)
