Thank you both.  Since the time of my last post on this matter I have
both gotten the Nice volume and have on the way both the Gergiev CD set
and a DVD-R of a telecast in Russian shown on French tv mezzo channel.

I am hoping that it will have French subtitles.

I did see the Bruck in a used store when I first posted a while back
but, when I returned, it was gone.  <Sigh>,

Best,
