I just received the Cliburn boxed set about a week ago. Listening to about 60% of it so far, the sound is amazingly good, especially the earliest issues and the later solo piano recordings.

The idea was to replicate the Lp's and this they have done very well, even mimicking the labels on the CDs. However, some of these recordings are very short and I think I would have liked some of the albums to have been combined on one CD, making the set take up less room.

The set is a fitting farewell to a great artist and American.
