New CDs
Went to HK Records yesterday. Couldn't help but bought some CDs. These are the ones I bought. The Sibelius set is quite rare (I didn't see it anywhere else). And it costs only HKD538. The 2-CD of Sibelius was a set including all the slow movements and pieces Sibelius wrote. And I found it very inspiring to listen to. The Bernstein Mahler 9 with BPO was recommended by Tungpo and I think I will give it a try, despite the relatively high price. The Strass Alpine Symphony by Wit is a long overdue item - I have been looking for it since 6 months ago. So it was a very fruitful morning at HK Records at Kowloon Tong.

Every time I go to HK Records or HMV, I just become crazy and buy lots of CDs.
I only have recordings of Mahler 4,5 and 6 but I find his music quite difficult to understand.
I've noticed the Sibelius set for some time and have wished to give it a try. The Vänskä's symphonies should be some very fine interpretation.
Review: Classic web
Do let us know how do you feel about the set!
Just bring the new HKPO program guide of season 07-08, there is a program with Pure Sibelius, u may like it...
