Christopher Rosevear mentioned finding...

Ditto on this one, I was searching for a recording of the Dumbarton Oaks
and stumbled across this, don't recommend it.

I have found Berkshire Musical outlet to offer some incredible bargains,
complete Sanderling-Sibelus Symphonies plus tone poems for $11...local
