Haydn: Symphonies, Vol. 18 (Nos. 80, 81, 99)R-5787537-1402677886-1253.jpeg.jpg

Last one is 83 + 82

I'm sorely tempted by the new box collecting up Decca's period instrument recordings of the lot (with the gaps filled with new recordings).  

Mendelssohn: 5 Symphonies; 7 Overtures (4 CD's)51XhCxT3RZL._SX300_QL70_.jpg

The String Quintet - memories of my gloomy first bedsit when I started working! This recording drove me nuts when I first heard it but it sounded fine yesterday - maybe it was the somewhat aggressive Death and the Maiden that set my teeth on edge.
