Just ordered a used Messiaen Edition 17 CD box as it was half the price of the newer 18 CD reissue download. The missing CD appears to be the Turangalîla-Symphonie of which I already have a CD so can live with that. Although I'd rather it had been the CD of the interview with Messiaen in French  :(.

I see!  :D  How did I get so confused... ::)

Anyway, no harm done: still got some new seasonal Charpentier by Christie.
I guess the hunt continues...but already got this one, which already has the "In Navitatem" H.414....

Un Oratori De Noël: In Nativitatem Domini Canticum (H.416)               
Sur La Naissance De Nostre Seigneur Jésus Christ (H. 482)

 
       

Mystery resolved: on the reissue the Antiennes 'O' de l'Avent H.36-43 and Noëls pour les instruments H.534 were added. Since the last piece, the In Navitatem H.414 was included in the Pastorale issue, I'm completely covered!  :)

First the Boulez DG box at roughly half the price I've seen it elsewhere, now this box (which I thought was long-gone) on eBay! Maybe I should buy a lottery ticket...  ;D 

So much great music, so little time...

Your serious addicted to CD'S, I advise you seek the help of a specialist to overcome this hunger for silvery dishes, plus an interior specialist to rearrange the furniture in order to get some room in your tiny flat, I am sure all these measures are needed, before all this gets out of proportion. A good choice of music, I give you that.  ;D  ;D  ;D
Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.

It seems I'm a lost cause... ::)   

And who says there is still room for any furniture?  ;D

Stocking up on vintage, OOP Italian recordings of operas by composers of the giovane scuola (and a pioneering, pre-Callas recording of probably the most representative opera from the bel canto era).

In case you still have some BIS records on your wish list, their BLACK50 code from Black Friday still works on the BIS releases (and maybe some other labels from their Black Friday original offer), not just their "Advent Calendar".

My first purchase since april so dont't chastise me.











At least I buy discs within a narrow area of interest, and avoid duplicates of works I have satisfactory recordings of. Box sets are malnly a no-no.
