Weingartner: I have a 1992 EMI References issue of the Brahms 
Symphonies; no credit for the remastering. I get the impression
that both EMI and RCA/BMG released  much of their 78 treasures
on CD with only a single "press run" and then dropped them.
Has Siegfried's Rhine Journey and Funeral Music made it to CD?
"No, its not a defective recording. That's the way the French play
French Horns."
Also, 2 Handel Concerti Grossi, Haydn's Toy Symphony and the
Liszt Piano Concertos which were on a VOX LP.

Beecham: Which of his 4 or 5 Messiah recordings have made it to CD?
I have most but not all of his suites of Handel arrangements. They are
the recordings I had in in mind as not being on CD.
