Deryk Barker mentioned that he thought Bruggen was "easily the best HIP conductor of Beethoven on record," which leads me to ask if anyone has any comments on his 5 CD set of complete Beethoven available on Philips? I see that it's available through Kuijper Klassiek (http://www.kuijperklassiek.nl/) for 42.63 euros (about $38.82 USD). [The usual "no connections" disclaimer applies, of course.] Any comments on the set and how it compares to other period sets (Gardiner, Norrington, etc.) or other sets of Beethoven generally? Any advice would be appreciated. Michael Butera Houston, TX
