A collection of Henry Cowell's "Hymn and Fuguing Tunes"

This is not be of the most general interest, but I can't find my answer elsewhere. I seem to have fallen in love with the 18 "Hymn and Fuguing Tunes" of Henry Cowell. I think they are physically and spiritually rich, and I respond intensely to them. But I only find them one at a time, spread out over many albums over many decades. Does anyone know of a collection of these compositions? The format almost doesn't matter - a box set of vinyl or CD's would be equally welcome.

Thanks,

 

David

I do not know of a recording with this music.

Maybe record to a thumb drive?

Did you try the usual suspects-discogs, ebay, etc?

I have tried eBay and other disc sources. I haven't found all the pieces in one collection. I did purchase a CD from the Northwest Chamber Orchestra that had four of them on the same disc - the most so far.

But I like the Acman3 idea - I have a CD recorder that allows me to record off of my streaming service (or whatever). I bet I can create my own CD (or two) of the full series by piecing together the various one-offs I have found off of Qobuz. 

For now, that will be my solution. Thank you both for helping...
