Recently I found a new (?) Pierre Boulez Edition on Sony, in "black" boxes with
3-6 CDs, with works by Bartok (but not including the Concerto for Orchestra!)
Berg, Berlioz, Boulez, Debussy, Mahler + Wagner, Ravel, Schoenberg, Stravinsky,
Varèse, Webern, Messiaen, Dukas, Roussel, Falla, Carter, Scriabin.
Because the Concerto for Orchestra of Bartok is not included, it's not "the
complete Boulez Sony recordings" together.
A listing can be found at:

I've bought one of the box (Mahler/Wagner - because of Das Klagende Lied).
No dates of remastering have been given in the booklet.
I was wondering if the Debussy items have the same sound quality as the earlier
Boulez Edition, or the (later) remasterings in the "Great recordings" series (Mr
Gable complained about the far inferior remastering of these).
