"...when the night came, tortured by the usual melancholy of my thoughts, taking a vihuela,
I went out by a back door to the fields, to put aside my worries, and to enjoy the fresh wind
that was blowing..." Rojas, 1603

That Hanson discount is remarkable - great find!

Stunning reductions, Orpheus !

I see that the Concertgebouw radio sets have already been snapped up  :o

I also note that they are offering the Pettersson symphonies set for a very reasonable (but admittedly not super bargain) 49.99 euro - http://www.jpc.de/jpcng/cpo/detail/-/art/Allan-Pettersson-S%E4mtliche-Symphonien/hnum/3512541

Some rarities... ;)



Orpheus  :D

Thanks a lot! I thought these rarities were long gone. Especially, the Haitink Live Radio Recordings I now ordered for Euro 20 :o. It's extemely expensive other places (minimum 10 times the price) if it even exists. It probably has not been sold out as it is difficult to find by a search on the jpc site

So, is this a legit label, or is it something like Documents?

You seem to have a serious aversion to Documents.  I have a few and they are actually not bad.  It really does not bother me to have a few of Documents among my close to 10K recordings ...

Pray tell me, which part of my question implied that I have "a serious aversion to Documents"?

E.g. I think the Mengelberg Qdisc set has the best-sounding Mengelberg 1939 Concertgebouw Mahler 4 on the market. And that's a very moving Mahler 4 with soprano Jo Vincent.

Does your question imply that Documents is a pirate label, Naveneeth? Because I think it's a totally legit label.

I've come across comments to the effect that it isn't totally legit. I emphasise totally because, as I've stated before, I'm aware of at least one set of recordings which was licensed from some other label. Anyway, I think we're veering away from my question, so let me rephrase it: is that label (Q?) legit?

Yes it is, and Documents is also a legit label. :)

Plus a hefty rate of postal costs I might add.
I think it is postage free if you add enough stuff to make it around 60 euros.
