Thanks once again to Fergus et al for recommendations :)

The Cluytens/BPO performance of the First Symphony is particularly good, I love that set.

There is absolutely no harm in brainwashing kids with the music of Beethoven Claus!!!

It is magnificent music-making.

I am now moving onto my January disks... with a very strong Renaissance theme. These of course will be listened to carefully, in conjunction with my other listens. I have the Dufay on at present, and it's quite simply wonderful...















every time I immerse myself into music from the Renaissance, I almost never want to return to listening to anything else... it completely entrances me..

What a wonderful line up you have there Jared....no wonder you are enthralled!!!

Not big into Classical per se. But I love this album ...

Gerry, if you feel you'd like to try a bit more Yo Yo Ma at a reasonable price, check out his Bach Cello Suites:
