Hi Don:
Yes and I will make sure to broadcast a link to it when it's online. Usually ArkivMusic.com has the
most user-friendly listings of box set contents. Amazon always has the best audio-previews but their
listings for classical music, in general, leave much to be desired.
I shouldn't have assumed that this is self-evident, so I'll state it clearly -- there is no overlap
between the box sets. Every CD in this new box set was not in the first box set. So this is bringing
back in print 53 more of the 1990s CD reissues. The other two discs in this new box are bonus discs
not previously released in this format.

Thanks, Tom. Is there going to be a complete listing of the set's contents at some point,
somewhere?

this is a good description/marketing video for the new box set. Non-US release
will be in April, USA
in May. 55-CD box. Pricing should be in line with the previous box (about $2 per
disc). New 6-LP
collector box will be released soon after the CD box. Manufacturing numbers will
be about the same
as last time, so availability will likely be about the same -- somewhere less
than a year before
they're all gone. UMG/Decca did a really nice job on this one. The first box was
very successful and
they came back and raised the bar on the second one rather than stick to the
exact same thing.
Between the two boxes, all but a handful of the original CDs have been brought
back into print
(temporarily).
