Which Webern box set do 20th century fans like?


I have the Craft and Boulez. My fav for the string trios and quartets is Arditti. Which do audiogoners go for?

I have to say, the Craft complete works LP box set (Columbia from the 1950's) is one of the best sounding vinyl recordings I own. The performances are great but are very specific. Some might hate it, I love it. There is a very intimate close mike sound, as opposed to the grand Boulez orchestral hall sound. With the right equiptment, the Craft sounds like you are eavesdropping in the 20th century genuis's living room.
