Help
I'm not a big classical fan but a good friend of mine is. Its his big 4oth soon and need some hints for a gift. Had a browse through some of his stuff and it seems something like Moussorgsky, Rimsky-Korsakoff, Orff, Borodin is what i'm after. Any box sets or "must have" vintage performances come to mind ?
