Somewhat surprisingly, my latest purchase involved sheet music, and several of my future ones also will (probably).
Good add!Originally Posted by White Knight
I think the "Third Ear" review says it best: "the budget price leaves you without excuse."
Also, this set has my favorite version of #7 (even pipping the more celebrated Kleiber version).
For my part, I recently picked up a used 10-CD set-Mengelberg- Maestro Appassionato. Granted, this package contains a lot of duplicates of war-horses that I already have... but at c. $2.00/disc, it was well worth it!

On order from Amazon:
Antonin Dvorak--Complete Symphonic Works {Box Set}, performed by the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Vaclav Neumann.
Jean Sibelius--Complete Symphonies {Box Set}, featuring the Utah Symphony led by Maurice Abravanel.
I just recently purchased Dvořák's complete symphony from Amazon as well. Great price.
@Nima, The same set with Neumann and the Czech Philharmonic? If so, it clocks in for less than $7.00!
