This is one of those discs that's so beautiful, it's hard to understand why anyone wouldn't have it. I urge you to discover it.
Is that still in print? I can't find it anywhere.

Sorry Bunnyears, I can't either. In my mind I bought it yesterday. Too bad. I didn't try to recommend an obscure recording.

My apologies.

I guess the ensemble isn't so young anymore.

I don't repine as I'm sure that I will find an equally praiseworthy recording of the piano quintets.

Warner has a "100th Anniversary Edition" of Dvorak's chamber music; it's ridiculously cheap (I got the 6 CDs for 23 Euros, but they're even cheaper e.g. on Amazon marketplace sellers) and includes all his best known chamber works; you might find better single versions of these works, but for this price it's hard to beat this set IMO.

Please post a link, because I can't find that anywhere.

It's in stock e.g. at Amazon.de, where I bought it:

At jpc:

At Amazon.co.uk:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dvorák-Chamb...e=UTF8&s=music
Another English source:

I couldn't find it at Amazon.com, but found a review here:

I suspected that it was only available in Europe! That's one of the problem with Warner Classics: small to nonexistant distribution in the USA.
