Here is a link to a PDF of the CD box booklet, so you can see exactly what's inside:

Also, there is definitely inventory in US retail channels now, so the March 24 release date is legit
and orders will be filled.
Box Set 2 is also available in all US retail channels (maybe also via Jay at a library price). Box 1
is still widely available via European and Asian retailers, particularly Amazon.uk (I mention them
mainly because they have proven reliable on shipping and competitive on price).

> In their latest recording, NEW RENAISSANCE, LAGQ embarks on a quixotic
> journey through Spain, Italy, England and France. Featuring original
> arrangements and compositions inspired by such Renaissance masters as
>
> Francesco da Milano, John Dowland and Josquin des Prez, it also shares
> connections with Miguel de Cervantes and the Minister of Silly Walks
> himself, Sir John Cleese. With a rich discography of over fifteen
> recordings, the pioneering Los Angeles Guitar Quartet has firmly established
> themselves as the "State of the Art" in guitar ensembles. Their repertoire
> runs the gamut from Bach to gamelan, from reggae to rock, and from Classical
> warhorses to incisive modern works. Throughout, LAGQ has stretched the sonic
> and stylistic possibilities of the guitar quartet. Their sense of
> experimentation has taken them to the far reaches of the musical map, all
>
> informed with their trademark "LAGQ Sound". This met its full realization in
> their GRAMMYR award-winning "LAGQ's Guitar Heroes", with homages to
> guitarists as diverse as Chet Atkins, Jimi Hendrix and Pat Metheny.
>
> Their highly anticipated new release-NEW RENAISSANCE-marks a return to the
> early music themes of their hit 1992 recording "Dances from Renaissance to
> Nutcracker", but this time infused with a distinctly modern aesthetic.
