agree  Helen D. Elliot (X): And agree that "perspective" (in the sense of musical perspective, I think) refers to the work, not the physical albums or CDs, so I'd stick with perspective. See below

agree  Jonathan MacKerron: perhaps "anthology" instead of perspective?

  -> "in" and "of" have slightly different nuances of meaning. I prefer "of" (e.g., first movement of the concerto; Volume 2 of this perspective)
