[Randy Lane]

I've traced a few to prior issues and placed Amazon links after them.
The Berlin Bruckner items are the previous issues many of us know
well.
There's a lot of duplication of repertoire here, and some recordings I
already own. But for about $120 USD plus shipping, this might be a
worthwhile buy.

Everything's been issued previously. What's available now I'm not sure.
One surprise is that the Bruckner 9 from Japan (arguably the finest of
the bunch) is *not* included. Also missing OTTOMH are the discs of
Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, Mussorgsky/Ravel, and Debussy, all live as I
recall.

Thanks Bob.
I decided to go ahead and buy this set today. I own none of these
except the Berlin Bruckners, so makes a nice addition.
I also ordered from there (Tower Japan) two other releases with live
recordings of Wand and the Bruckner 9th:

One is this : http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/product/detail/308896 (I paid a
lot less than the HMV asking price) (I think this is the one you refer
to)

And this one : http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/product/detail/4203672 (recent
release 2011)

Correction - the NHK is the Bruckner 8th, not the 9th. So I am quite
certain the NDR live recordings is the Bruckner 9th you say
outstanding.

[HaydnHouse.com]

If anything, buy this set for discs 21, 22, and 23! Thsi is must have
Bruckner from Wand. Imsho, The acoustic of the Lubeck Dom match, what
could be, the cosmic reality view of Bruckner.......Just a thought.

I believe you could add this to your list of previous issues. A great
performance btw:

This whole reminds me of an April Fool's Day joke they did on
classicstoday years ago, where they reviewed a box set of Wand's many
performances of Bruckner 8. Still, if I had the shelf space and the
dough, I'd love to have this.

Know what you mean.
I mapped out all of the Wand Bruckner recordings I'll have now.
Includes 6 recordings of #9 and 5 of # 8.
But, except they be somewhat cheap and compact (i.e., not in
individual jewel cases), I wouldn't have nearly that many.
Same goes for the upteen Beethoven and Bruckner recordings I have with
Furtw132ngler - in some cases the same performance multiple times with
differeing digitial enhancement (or defilement).

Indeed it is, of both works. I've always found this one of the most
exciting performances of Leonore #3 I've ever heard, and the Eroica's
just that much better than the one in the set of the Nine.

I thought it was a purported box of 9 9ths. I'll bet between issued
recordings and downloads of other live performances one could get that
many :)

I know there's one I've yet to acquire.
I always thought this one

http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/album.jsp?album_id=103889

was in this box:

http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/album.jsp?album_id=309847

Then I looked closer and realized it aint true.

[nai...@gmail.com]

I was told there were two versions of this 33CD set: One is the Korean version, another one is EU(Germany) version. Any comments/reviews on these two versions?
Also, anyone knows the UPC for the EU version?

I have never seen any version other than the Korean version.
Nor have I have never seen any evidence that even suggests there is any other version than the Korean version.

Of all of the Classical boxes produced by the Korean organization that produced this Wand set, the only sets I've ever seen in an EU (or International) version wer the Karajan 1960s box and the Mercury Living Presence set.

My suspicion is that the International/EU versions only get produced when there is evidence of high demand after the Korean version gets issued. I think the Koreans produce these sets independently and the rest of the record-producing world watches with great interest to see if there's any profit to be made by extending the market.
