Are we all eagerly awaiting the release of this new volume (http://www.hyperion-records.co.uk/dc.asp?dc=D_CDA67878&vw=dc), despite the outstanding performers?
No. I'm sure it'll be good, but I bought the complete VCs on Fuga Libera last year sometime, so I'm not in the market for repeats...
As an aside, the Fuga Libera set (audio excerpts here...)
