bargain price is secondary to finding an outstanding performance and MCH recording of this spectacular piece. Let us know what you think of this when you play it.

  I really do not understand why one would restrict himself to SACD's or multi channels, surely the performances comes first.
  I do have the Reiner SACD and although the sound has lots of presence I find the performance boring. And to be honest I am more interested in the other works included in this 4 cd's set than Sheherazade.
  I just heard it too many times.

    "I really do not understand why one would restrict himself to SACD's or multi channels, surely the performances comes first."
    
    Completely agreed. However, I have multiple recordings of this piece on LP and CD and, although I won't list them, they are musically satisfying (as suitable for this piece).
    
    OTOH, what is lacking is a decent multichannel recording and, if you must know, that is important (although secondary) to me.
