I’m pretty excited about this set that arrived today. I already have a Stravinsky box set, just played it recently, and unhappy with its pressing, mastering, and/or sound quality overall. So I went looking for a replacement, and what better than a box set of Stravinsky’s works conducted by himself? This set is in pretty darn good shape, considering it has a silver reflective finish, and a great thick booklet within. This should be fun, hopefully, as I have big expectations.

Nice SQ, slight groove noise, I can’t say it’s a big jump up in sound over my original pressing
