Some bargains I could not resist, all for less than 20 euros. I am especially curious for the Amadeus Mozart of the 50s.
The first half of life is spent in longing for the second, the second half in regretting the first.

Is it bliss?  :laugh: ⁷

Prefer not to know - you know ignorance is bliss.
Reality trumps our fantasy far beyond imagination.

Finally found the Dantone Haydn 78-81 symphonies. The Arrau/Szigeti Beethoven violin sonatas in mediocre sound, but the first I heard of it is great.

Unfortunately just a one off instead of the originally projected series, but it's very good.

I don't know yet as I haven't received the CD  ;D
It features mostly live performances of some of my favourite works by Bliss including 'Morning Heroes' the Piano Concerto and the Concerto for Two Pianos as well as the Colour Symphony. Somm release some interesting material.

"Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise..."

Sometimes, not knowing about your troubles does make life feel oddly pleasant. Especially once you realise that the past and future don't actually exist anywhere except in your own thoughts.

And if the real trouble lives only in your head—well then, perhaps blissful ignorance isn't such a bad place to be after all :)
