Yes, they look like a bargain but do I need any more Beethoven sets having doubled my collection in the last week? I blame Basil.

Repeat after me, 'you can never have too many Beethoven sets'

This guy (Beethoven) changed the way we listen to music, forever!

Buy it...NOW!

:)

ps,

Personally, not a great fan of the Zinman set, but you might love it...

Quite apart from the space problem when am I ever going to get time to listen to all these different recordings? and then the Met starts again on saturday.....
 
Bazza,

Have you considered retiring?

Worked a treat for me...

;-)

ps,

Also, insomnia helps a lot...

Then I`d have no money to buy recordings - and so far only the excuse of a heavy workload has saved me from having to do the decorating.
 
Yes this thread is a very bad thing....just put on Karajan's '77 9th. The sound is the arid DG house sound of the time no doubt compounded by a nice digital remastering with mid 80 s technology, but oh the playing!

Listened to Colin Davis, LSO live, Symphony no.3 last night straight after Karajan's 62. My how recording technology has moved on, it was like listening while sitting on the stage floor among the double basses in the Barbican.

Made me wonder about more sympathetic contemporary digital remastering of Karajan's. 70s and 80's output.......
