Notes & Reviews:

The New Collectors Edition (original US release 3/30/2010) continues with ten new releases, many of which are appearing at budget price for the first time. This specially priced 5-CD set of Abbado's Schubert symphony-cycle is a benchmark recording - exhibiting a "freshness of approach and authentic Schubertian warmth and glow" (Gramophone). Added bonus: Joseph Joachim's great orchestration of the Grand Duo - originally for piano duet, now a virtual symphony in its own right. "An outstanding set... naturally sunny and warm in expression" - The Penguin Guide
