I don't know about the Pires Mozart, but Gulda's Beethoven set was

Wasn't that another recording (earlier I thought)?

No, the earlier (and very inferior) set is in the Decca Original
Masters series.

The Eloquence set of the 1967 Amadeo recordings, at least two yeara old
but never released in the US, contained the piano concertos as well as
the sonatas and was reissued on DG in July, 2005. The Brilliant
Classics set, which contains the same sonata recordings but no
concertos, was released in December, 2005. The Decca Original Masters
set of Gulda's complete sonatas from 1950 - 1958 was released in
August, 2005.
