I can imagine that. The guy needed some aging.

I have heard him play 'Goldberg Variations' once and i did like it to certain extent. Nice find !

Thriftstore-find. Recording dates from 1979. Reissued on Doremi as seen in picture underneath.

I am happy about that ! We all bragg a little bit, this is part of human nature ofcourse.

Anthology of the Concertgebouw (1935-1950) * Bruckner (Gunter Wand) or was this last year ?! * Schubert (Vienna philharmonic quartet, first UK) * Beethoven (Karajan, DGG Collectors edition, 60's cycle) * several Rubinstein discs * Mozart Sonatas ( Allicia De larrocha) * Strauss conducts Strauss * Moravec Recital * The art of the Lute (Paul O'dette) * DiCapo boxes Lipatti, Gieseking, Solomon * Brendel complete Vox * Rubinstein, Fournier/Szeryng Schubert RCA near mint platters * Beethoven Piano Concertos (Schnabel) * Stokowski 10 discs * Dupré complete Emi , ...to call most of the best ones. Could you chose a best ? I found a new Thiftstore because my favorite one dried completely. At this moment i dare to say that over 70 % in my Classical collection is from thriftstores. I hope you understand that it is attractive to mention these finds. I hope it doesn't come across as bragging to much. Curious about this recording !

1.50 euro find of yesterday. 3 CD Complete reference recordings. Hunting has paid of.

Suk is one of those violinist i can't go really wrong with. Found this for 50 cents yesterday.

hope to find this some day ... ... heartfelt Brahms. My favorite. Klemperer is a bit to cold for me compared with 'Giulini'. The Emi set is my favorite and i love the Dgg recordings also.

To expand the Moravec Hommage a little bit ... NP Piano Concerto No. 3 (Ivan Moravec) (Found this one some time ago)

'beautiful tone' big smile

beautiful euro find of today.

agree with that

my favorite

Ok. i've got the picture !

... and may i ask which recordings of the sixth you have heard ?

What is/are your favorite recording/recordings of the sixth ?

I have the seventh on Orfeo. From what i remember more or the less as good as the studio recording. Don't know about the sixth here.

A first listen and i am curious because there are classical lovers marked this as a reference recording. Found the disc some time ago for a euro and managed to save it for this moment. NP , this totally rocks !

Yes, it is a true reference recording and an absolute must-have for the fifth and seventh. No doubt about it. Harnoncourt certainly has the fire but his recordings lack emotional involvement/depth and the sound of the Chamber Orchestra doesn't work that well ether. Maybe the fifth works best for me here.

Found a near mint copy some time ago ... NP

Symphony No. 7

Sonatas Nos. 18, 21 'Waldstein', 23 'Appassionata'
