Is there still no complete Wagner excepting the thirteen operas?

And I'd grab a complete Arnold Bax faster than anything- there've been complete Waltons and Elgars long ago...

Quite a number of medieval composers could be recorded complete, for the enrichment of the picture of those times.

My main gripe here is LPs which never made it to CD:

Most notably Bax Symphony No 3 (Edward Downes, RCA)  >:(
"Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm" (Churchill).

'The test of a work of art is, in the end, our affection for it, not our ability to explain why it is good' (Stanley Kubrick).

Did the Jochum Beethoven symphonies ever make it to CD? I got to know 1,2,8,9 from them.

He made three sets, all of which are available on CD. The first of these (DG) is OOP.
Reality trumps our fantasy far beyond imagination.
