Good upload - thanks for this. Here's the quality of each symphony:
1: Toscanini = 192
2: Blomstedt = 192
3: Szell = Mixed (160 - 224)
4: Bernstein = 192
5: Furtwangler = 128
6: Bohm = 256
7: Kleiber = 320
8: Gardiner = 320
9: Fricsay = 256
It would be great to get all these in 320 KBps for the more discriminating classical purists like myself, but I can't complain. Really good, and hard to find, selections here!
