I think the Bolet is about 10 years old; my memory is that it did not
receive any favorable reviews.  I don't like it at all.  Bolet is not just
slow, he's ponderous.  I don't remember Dutoit doing anything to improve
matters either.  Even if this disc was at superbargain price, I'd recommend
against it.
