Do not have the Franck, but have all the others and Harry is certainly right!
Thanks for the encouragement from everybody!

Very good price at mdt, even though the £ is crazy expensive these days.

Only 3 CDs of music, but much of it isn't readily available in other forms (except for the string quartet which I already have).

Listened to that last night. Waiting to post my verdict until you have listened, less the bazooka gets an outing.

Spatial distortion is a serious problem deteriorating headphone listening.
Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural
and less tiresome in headphone listening.

Excellent acquisition! Mauro Borgioni is an excellent singer and the orchestra is very good, too (on period instruments, of course).  :)

Superb sound, very fine interpretation, but both Blomstedt and Lenny (which I was impronted on) has things to say in this work that I wouldn't be without.

Which Blomstedt? Danish or San Francisco? I'll agree Bernstein's is one of the greats.
