That Faust Beethoven is one of the only Beethoven VCs I understand/abide so I'm with you on that. And the Ballets Russes box you will enjoy thoroughly.

  Sweet haul!
I myself broke down and picked up a second hand copy of this:

Nice! 'Dial M for Murder' has a great soundtrack as well.

I see that he wrote the soundtrack to the film "The Ninth Gate" (which I saw years ago).  Here's a link to it:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HRQkXvw2I4

I hadn't realized that he had written so much film music...pretty neat!

Yes, I saw that he had done that.  From what I remember, I wasn't keen on that movie remake?  Maybe I should rewatch it.  By the way, have you ever watched "The Ninth Gate"?  If so, what did you think of it?

No, I haven't seen The Ninth Gate or Dracula but I enjoy the soundtrack for Dracula as a stand alone work.

Purchased a used copy of Casals' recording of the Bach Suites for unaccompanied cello released by Naxos.



I have the EMI release, which I think is universally described as horrible. (I seem to recall they didn't have original source materials and had to base their release of shellac discs in circulation.) First spot-listen seems to indicate that Ward Marston has done a better job.

Love the Delos Hanson's and the fine Bryden Thomson Martinu box.

I'm looking forward to listening to both!

I've seen it, also read the novel it was based on, The Dumas Club.  What was lost in translation to the screen was the obsession people had with collecting different editions of Alexandre Dumas' novels.  The movie had more of a supernatural angle than the novel did.  But yeah I liked it.

Oh, interesting about The Dumas Club!
