Tchaikovsky 5. Don't know this Symphony so well, but it's a while since I've had the chance to listen to an entire Symphony. Fingers crossed I'll get to the end without disturbance. Sound is always good on a Sunday too!

Jansons does well with Russian music.
Seán I chose the Guarneri as I had not heard it in a while. The Italiano is a classic and I enjoy the Cleveland Quartet as well in the Beethoven.
