The release date is 1994 or 1995, since (a) the latest date on the set is 1994 (booklet materials); (b) a 2001 reissue of this compilation (SU-3574-2 212) gives its predecessor’s date as 1994; (c) the Sonopress catalog #s I-5078 and I-5079 are in a long sequence of 1994 releases (see Sonopress profile page). Fanfare Magazine, however, reviews the release in July/Aug 1995 (Issue 18:6), Gramophone in 3/1996.
