VSL have a couple of options - one was called 'Opus' but there are other newer options too that combine bread and butter sounds from their main library into a compact smaller package.
Bearing in mind VSL is aimed at the hardcore orchestral/straight composer this does mean that you really really REALLY need to have a lot of understanding of orchestration and how these various playing techniques and articulations, what they mean and how to make use of them in an arrangement to make a single line of music played on one instrument sound real. This could be a big a outlay of cash if this level of complexity is not needed nor understood. ( a hard drive full with 300,000 violin section samples when you may only ever use 100 may be a waste of space too )
How deep do you want to go ?
