The answer is simple.  These are symphonies by Micheal Haydn not Joseph
Haydn.  There appears to be two numbering systems for these symphonies
thus P32 = Symphony No 41 in F major and so on.

If you purchase these I would be interested to hear your views on the
performances.  Also is anyone has heard these and the Harold Faberman
versions then I like to know how they compare.
