...no question, enough symphonic greatness to keep most of our feet tapping the rungs of our rocking chairs through the longest retirement! Remarkably cheap, but then, so are supermarket tomatoes and frozen ahi tuna from Trader Joe's! But wouldn't you rather have one plate of heirloom tomatoes dressed with balsamic vinegar than all the gas-ripened globules on every salad bar in every chain restaurant in America?
I haven't heard all these performances. I haven't purchased this box, and I don't plan to. This is a review written on request. I've heard some of the original recordings of some of the symphonies by most of the composers. Right away I can declare the the Blomstedt and Marriner performances fall waaay short of my expectations. The rest are, as much as I've heard of them, proficient and even 'brilliant' enough, and the Haydn and Shostakovich recordings are better than most. None of them, however, would be my first choice for their respective repertoire. In other words, the only thing that really recommends this box is the price.
