Does anyone know where to find more information on this Celibidache CD boxset?

I have already tried searching for the record label, which I think is 'Artone' but gave up trying to find a website. I have tried Amazon sites in other countries, but they offer no more information (though the American site lists the pieces in the boxset).

What I am mainly interested in is when were these recorded, and have they been remastered?

Update:

EDIT: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sergiu-Celibidache-Conduct...

Somehow I forgot to include the link.

    It might help if you gave us some details about the specific recordings concerned. Even if I could be bothered to look at Amazon US, I wouldn't know which recordings you were referring to.

    EDIT: If you use your search engine and enter into the search bar "celibidache artone" you will see MANY references to this set, including places where you can buy it very reasonably for around £25/$40.

    EDIT 2: As far as I can ascertain, the recordings are:

    Purcell - King Arthur (16 August 1945)

    Mozart - Symphony No 25 (1948)

    Mendelssohn - Symphony No 4 (Italian) (20 January 1950)

    Brahms - Symphony No 4 (21 November 1945)

    Dvořák - Cello Concerto (with Pierre Fournier) (1945)

    Busoni - Vioin Concerto (with Siefried Börries) (9 May 1949)

    Barber - Capricorn Concerto (1959)

    Britten - Sinfonia da Requiem (10 November 1946)

    Roussel - Petite Suite (24 July 1945)

    Hindemith - Piano Concerto (with Gerhard Puchelt) (4 September 1949)

    Stravinsky - Jeu de cartes (6 March 1950)

    By definition, these recordings will have to have been remastered for the CD medium from whatever masters exist from the original recordings (original tapes or original pressings).
