A new section?

[BetweenTheStaves]

I was wondering if there was any merit in having a section for people to list 'out of stock' 'wants' which might be lingering, dusty and unloved on someone else's shelf? For example, I would like to get hold of a copy of this Conductor: Roger NORRINGTON Performer: London Classical Players Performer: Lynne DAWSON - Soprano Performer: Olaf BAR - Baritone Performer: Schutz Choir Of London
Virgin, 5 61605 2, tr 5. having heard it on CoW the other day. Amazon lists three available from £25+ and up!!

Might be worth saying that this is Brahms's Ein deutsches Requiem and Begräbnissgesang (the one piece of information you don't include above)!
Arkivmusic.com will make you a brand new one of their (excellent) custom pressings for 12.99 US Dollars:

and amazon.de has a couple of used copies that are less expensive too:

Makropulos..many many thanks for taking the time to search these out. I had no idea that Arkivmusic could make pressings. Anyway, after much head scratching and dictionary work I managed to order one from Germany.

Very glad you found one at a sensible price! I'm no Norrington apologist, but I do think this is a very interesting performance, and an enjoyable one.

Sorry, I should have responded earlier.

I think a better suggestion might be to use the CD Review board - where the knowledgeable 'collectors' tend to hang out - and start a new thread with 'WANTED: &c &c'. If one person started doing it, it would probably encourage others to do so.
