100 chefs‐d’œuvre de la musique classique

~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 7 available)

Annotation

There are various bits of evidence for this release, but I haven't found anywhere with a full track listing with performer credits. A confusion is that it has apparently been superceded by another compilation with the same title but with 5CDs rather than 6, and a different tracklist: release:50c4d881-2264-4455-81a8-832c73090f1a.

The discs of this collection also seem to exist as independent releases, but only some of them are in MBz.

There's a tracklist for the Sacred Music CD at https://www.music-bazaar.com/world-music/album/918749/Les-100-Chefs-D-oeuvre-De-La-Musique-Classique-CD6-Splendeurs-De-La-Musique-Sacr%C3%A9e/, but the tracklist is reordered.
