Yep, MP3, but ....

Here's a mono set of the complete Beethoven (32) piano sonatas from the 1950s played by Wilhelm Kempff for £3.99.
Superb performances and pretty decent mono sound - but I doubt it loses much, if anything, in MP3 format.

And some utterly wonderful Bruckner symphonies in old Soviet Style Stereo, this doesn't lose much in MP3, either. :)
Symphonies 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 & 9 conducted by the marvellous Gennadi Rozhdestvensky.
Oh, that Russkie brass in Bruckner! :eek: You ain't heard it like this before! :nono: :D

The very best 0 (Nullte) I have heard - Rozhdestvensky easily places it among the great Bruckner symphonies, imho.

£7.49 for the lot. :)

Thanks for the tip Jerry,

I downloaded the Bruckner, and am listening now - superb! BTW, the price has dropped since your original post, it is now only £6.09 for all those symphonies. The Aberdonian in me just couldn't resist!
