In a new CD I just received, there's a flier about "The Sibelius Edition." This is a 13-volume set on 65 discs, put out by BIS, with every piece Sibelius wrote. It's not cheap, but maybe ten years from now someone will put it up on eBay for $1/box because they never listened to it ? ? ?

-
the 8 volumes which have been released so far, are REALLY complete, and contain any work which in one way or another is performable.
Apart from the published opus numbers (1-113) there are all published works without an opus number (JS), as well as all works which are in the (complete!) Sibelius archives in the Helsinki University Library (HUL numbers).
Many complete surprises are to be found in this series, of the in total 65 or so CDs approximately half consists of hardly or never before recorded works.
Very recommendable - it's the Sibelius CD version of the works presented on the BeethovenUnheard site.
