As typical with Naxos, I got all of these cheap as hell (about $1-$4 each).

I've had to level off on the music purchases this month as we're in the process of getting a new car... and Christmas is just around the bend. Nevertheless I did pick these up:





Of course I'm not suffering from any withdrawal. I'm still slogging my way through a slew of recent box set purchases: Shostakovitch' quartets, Bartok's quartets, Bruckner's symphonies, Schumann's piano works, Schubert's piano sonatas, Haydn's piano sonatas and the "Sturm und Drang" Symphonies, Beethoven's piano concertos and sonatas, and several operas. That should hold me for a while.

I have a ton on the way now. I think I have around 30 something CDs on the way. This should hold me until I find another Bruckner CD I don't have.

I order everything online from Amazon third-party sellers, so I'm sure most of them don't even come from stores, but warehouses.

@Stlukes:

How is that Rachmaninov/Mariss Jansons set? I just got his Tchaikovsky symphony set and it's great!!

(I'm listening to Symphony #3 right now!!)
