First holiday purchases, most inspired by GMG 

Splendid! I'm considering a Strauss Alpensinfonie but am on the wrong thread for that!

Ended up buying this one:

Very good choice for the Berlioz Requiem   

If you ever desire a second recording, Norrington with the SWR Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra is quite special.

My top choice for Berlioz's Requiem. Sir Colin Davis is still unmatched all of these years later IMHO.

Pounds the table for all the above.  Actually, pounds the table 7 times for the Argerich box, since there's 7 CDs in that set.

Don't think anything negative about the two for which I did not pound the table,  I should add.  It's just that I don't have them....

You are absolutely correct.  When it comes to works of Berlioz, Colin Davis is still second to none ...

Finally ordered this spinning tower today with 1600-CD capacity.  All my Bach CD's will be relocated to this CD tower after it has arrived.  This will keep all my Bach CD's in one place with some room to grow.

There are at least a couple posters who rave about this. Good music and good musicians, so I cannot imagine it being a dud.

Based on Camel Camel, the price took a bit of a dive on Amazon so I took the plunge not to let it pass :

I bought this set from MDT or Presto Classical last year at a great price.  The performance was excellent IMO ...
