So here I am this morning... breaking off my listen to Berlioz' Romeo & Juliet by Colin Davis half way through, because I had to pop into town to do some shopping.

It is indeed and that Herreweghe cd looks very interesting too; I better slow down or I'll need a second mortgage at this rate.Jared wrote:Seán wrote: Speaking of the Brahms Piano Quintet, this arrived today, it features the sensational Italian Quartet and Pollini, what a combination!
