Sterling Records
Got a invite back to eMusic for one free month and thinking about getting a couple of free albums. During the eMusic unlimited days I had downloaded about 1/3 or so of the Sterling Catalogue
(http://www.emusic.com/listen/#/albums/label/Sterling Records - Qualiton The Orchard/1400109564/all/)
Very happy with those I have downloaded, even though the sound is sometimes not so great (sometimes a little on the dull or muddy side) Thinking about picking up another couple of albums by them although also have my eye on these possibilities:
(http://www.emusic.com/listen/#/album/ensemble-peregrina/13th-and-14th-century-polish-clarisse-convents-music-from/12190632/)
(http://www.emusic.com/listen/#/album/irina-muresanu/guillame-lekeu-alberic-magnard-sonates-pour-violon/10999643/)
(http://www.emusic.com/listen/#/album/sinfonia-varsovia/polish-symphonic-music-of-the-19th-century/12689596/)
(http://www.emusic.com/listen/#/album/bogdan-czapiewski/szeligowski-concerto-for-orchestra-piano-concerto-
4-polish-dances/11114775/)
(http://www.emusic.com/listen/#/album/warsaw-chamber-opera-orchestra/polish-symphonies-of-the-eighteenth-century/10800008/)
I have noticed they have not added any of the newer Sterling albums -- so that the Sterling albums they have now are the same ones they got around 2003 or so when the added selected Qualiton provided releases. Puzzling to me why no additional Sterling albums.
Anyway, if anyone has any recommendations for Sterling Records, would appreciate it.
Currently thinking of filling out my current Sterling holdings with one or two of these:

These are not readliy available works (or generally often recorded composers) and even to find these challenges are hard or expensive. For example, the last one is not in stock at Amazon and would be $19 if it was: http://www.amazon.com/Burgmuller-Sinfonie-C-moll-Hugo-Staehle/dp/B000066SH9/ref=sr_1_12?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1347296034&sr=1-12
So checking if anyone has download any Sterling titles at eMusic besides myself -- and if so, what do they recommend.
