I ordered the Brahms and the Debussy. All the classical albums are with the great Czech Philharmonic. Noticed that the Berlioz only has the first two movements along with the Roman Carnival Overture. I am assuming some later release will have the other movements of the Symphonie Fantastique.

Mine, too! Scheduled to arrive on Tuesday (Italy to California). Faster than most shipments across the US. Larry
Thanks friends, we work harder to ship fast, we take the stock on the high-side and use DHL Express since we ship worldwide. Frrom Italy we have a very good German gateway to USA and East Asia !

I received my order yesterday. They were the Debussy and the Brahms. Just played the Brahms Double Concerto - one of my favorite pieces. The tape is super - hard to believe it is from a master more than 50 years old. Suk and Navarra play very well. Suk has a real connection to Brahms. His grandfather, also Joseph Suk, was Dvorak's son-in-law, making Dvorak his great-grandfather. And Brahms was Dvorak's great mentor. Read the sad story of Karl Ancerl, the great Czech conductor, who was imprisoned in Auschwitz in WWII where both his wife and son were killed.

BTW, for the Open Reel people - at the very end of the Brahms tape there are two test tones - one at 1K and the other at 10K (I believe). Not sure whether there are test tones at the end of your other tapes. The 10K tone is quite low in volume.

Thanks, Larry
