Anyway, you can't go wrong with Bruggen or Leonhardt. I am not familiar with Anner Bylsma.

Haim,

Technically these are Teldec recordings.  Teldec being the conglomeration of Telefunken and Decca and further that Das Alte Werk was the arm for early music and HIP.  Now all these recording from Das Alte Werk, Teldec, and Erato are owned by Warner Classics.  Maybe from the inception in the late 50's, Telefunken was shown on the label but then dropped.  The only disappointment with this box is that it spreads the discs between the 60's to the 90's.  I wish it would have focussed solely on the early years from around 1958 through the 70's and then had a box for the 80's - 90's.

Klemperer's Missa Solemnis from Vox days. ( '51 recording )

Lively and exhilarating he pretty much zips through the scores.

 

Singers are clearly not up for the task.

I've read that those were Bill Ward's wife's tights. Ozzy's boots seem quite era appropriate.

Well have to say never been a big Beck in fact I doubt if I have listened to an album of his all the way through but this is a superb album. Slow paced and supposedly a sequel to Sea Change.

Another excellent album by Angel Olson. Make sure you listen past the wonderfully titled first track as that is her quiet side.

Rocking Chair

 

A band that I personally think with the right material and producer could be big.
