H/T Jeffrey Smith! 

Please let me explain:

I followed your amazon link of Harnoncourt's Miss a Solemnis in the Listening thread, saw this listed and placed the order!  Thanks. 

Do you have this recording, Jeffrey?

Added the Missa Solemnis to the wishlist too!

I think I have it, but if I do, it made no impression on me.

Forgot to mention this one the other day:

Aase´s Death with the spoken dialogue between Peer and his dying mother literally brought tears in my eyes.

Is there a recording with the spoken dialogue included? I love the music from Grieg's Gynt, and would love to hear it with the dialogue.

Don't know too much about Quincy Porter, but the audio samples sounded quite nice. I read his string quartets are superb. I might need to check those out as well at some point.

Brahms: Ein Deutsches Requiem [Norrington]....

I have been so good about big boxes lately but I just ordered the big Seon box for €80 shipped from jpc.de. Borrowed $35 from next month's budget  . Hat tip/blame to Que.

If it makes you feel better, I've spent half of my 2017 budget. Oops!

Is this the 85 CD box ?  I bet.it will take you a while to get through it...

I don't think your buying system would work for me at all.

Yes, that's the one. I have an aversion to the concept of owning a bunch of music that I've never listened to. If I listen to 1 set (1-2 discs) most days then I'll get through it in 2-3 months. I've done that for the last few big boxes I bought.

Or, if you don't want to get the whole set, there also is a double CD

[aligreto]

More Liszt symphonic music for my collection....

[Ghost Sonata]

Hoping a (premature) post in this thread will be bring me luck Friday.  The LAST thing I need is another integral of Beethoven piano sonatas, BUT I love Kempff's pianism and there's a used set at a local book/cd shoppe, already preisgünstig and a 20% labor day sale upcoming.  Wish me luck.

Found the Peer Gynt performance from this set on Spotify, 8 tracks in I went straight to Amazon and ordered it! Just what I was looking for. Thanks, again!
It reminded me of some other great works/recordings with spoken dialogue, Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream, Mozart's Magic Flute, and Weill's Threepenny Opera. Made it up to Act III, want to wait until I get the CD and get a complete run through.

Cross posting from the Grieg thread...that's exactly what I did GeoDude. Thanks, Friends!

Received these three beauties cheap from presto:

[asin]B00008NF4B[/asin]

I didn't buy the big box since I already had some of the doubles.

I am in a similar situation. And the doubles are beautifully packaged, so it's great you could get them. I thought they were mostly out of print.
I am also not enthusiastic about all of their Haydn; e.g. I find the Mosaiques' op.20 better. As I still could not be bothered to get any of the newish "London Haydn Quartet" series on hyperion, the Festetics opp.9 and 17 are still my only HIP recordings of these pieces and they are pretty good. Of the rest I have heard (all but opp.33+42, 76+77 where I simply had to many recordings already), my favorite is probably their op.50.
