Yes, there are some outstanding performances in this set---so I might
have to back-peddle a bit here. I'd say that 1,3,4,5, and 7 are excellent.
Maybe I'm being too demanding when it comes to sets. This is a very good
"batting average" for a set---at least as good as Colin Davis's new RCA
Sibelius set. So, even though I'd have to supplement Handley's set with a
better 2, 6, 8, and maybe 9 (I need to refresh my memory on Handley's 9),
I agree that it's a set worth having (I have it!) In general, however, I
don't think sets are the way to go.
