:tup Still a great set and my favourite of her 3(!) complete recordings - I also have the Eloquence 2017 issue of her 1941/42 recordings, her first recordings of the complete Rach. Preludes. Glad to have them, although I'm not hearing anything drastically different from her other cycles. Possibly that's just me, maybe you have heard/compared? I also recently purchased the Decca Legacy box (Eloquence) that includes that 1941/42 set plus her 1951 Decca recordings. Very good. Some interesting obscurities in the Eloquence box like Rawthorne's concerto with Adrian Boult. 

 

Oh and speaking of Supraphon, now playing Martinu - Symphony 6
