Uniformly excellent with the best Cartes I know, I like this set immensely

Dutoit's Firebird is my favorite version.

Don't think I've heard that;  but his disc of Le sacre and the Symphonies d'instruments à vent is an old favorite of mine!

nor in competing for the favor of wayward friends.

I have that also, as well as Petrushka. Think they're both long out of print. I'm guessing they weren't critically well-received, but I enjoy 'em!

A fantastic set, Ilaria!  :)

I'm also a huge fan of the Stravinsky Sony Box!

Yes, I have this Rite on SACD, sounds wonderful - though as Gramophone said, not a record to play if you live in an apartment with thin walls.
