On 5 November, DG release a 43 CD box set of all Wagner's operas. That's ALL of them - including Rienzi, Das Liebesverbot and Die Feen, typically omitted from so-called 'complete works'.
If your shelves are already groaning under the weight of Wagnerdiscs, you can probably resist the temptation. But if you need to fill some holes in your collection, this mixed-artist set is a bargain at £58.46. That's cheaper than buying the early operas separately, and you also get some classic recordings of the more familiar works, including the 1982 Carlos Kleiber Tristan with Margaret Price and Fischer-Dieskau's Hans Sachs conducted by Jochum.
