They also offer recordings unique to their own imprint. Musical Heritage Society discs are available only to members of the Society - it is one of those subscription services, like the Book-of-the-Month Club. I don't know if membership in the club is available in Europe, or if there are restrictions due to copyright issues. The same organization also runs Jazz Heritage Society - a similar organization for jazz recordings. <BR/><BR/>Of course, the MHS re-issue lacks the large format book that came with the LP edition... <BR/><BR/>with good wishes, <BR/><BR/>James Primosch <BR/>-- <BR/>Dr. James Primosch <BR/>Robert Weiss Professor of Music <BR/>Department of Music <BR/>University of PennsylvaniaPliablehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10616598845886342325noreply@blogger.com
