Out of print RCA recordings
on: July 12, 2005, 05:29:18 AM
Can someone tell me whether or not the following are still available:

  • Horowitz: Complete RCA recordings (22 discs I think)
  • The RCA Rubinstein Collection (94 CDs)
  • Rachmaninoff Complete RCA recordings (10 CDs)

I've heard that they've gone out of print but it's unbelievable that that would happen because those are really important sets.

I don't have them or know if they are out of print, but I would love to have those sets.

  I'm fairly certain 1 and 3 are still readily available.

The Horowitz certainly is. Saw it for sale in the HMV shop in London.

Decided not to buy.

I am pretty sure the Rubinstein and the Rach set are still available.

 They are probably still available, but if not, they sell them on ebay, Tsss...
 I found some of  the Horowitz's and Rachmaninoff's complete RCA recordings there.

Good luck on your search...

The Rachmaninoff set is definitely still available. It's worth every penny!
