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. 12 hours ago, soulpope said: Truly 🔥powerful🔥 Bruckner 5 performance ....

Fortunately, I also have that cycle (in addition to several other Nielsen cycles and individual symphony recordings). I've become a bit obsessed with Nielsen recently. 🤩 Then again, how can you NOT be obsessed with a guy who had the foresight to mug for the camera in the 19th century, long before it was fashionable?
