Tír Na HiFi

I am looking for your recommendations for the Tchaikovsky Orchestral Suites please.

I have two CDs shortlisted....


1. Dorati / New Philharmonia Orchestra:





I do have some Tchaikovsky symphonies conducted by Dorati and I really like the performances.


2. Jarvi / Detroit Symphony Orchestra:





Does anyone have these?
Is there something else that I should be considering?

Hi Fergus, this is a marvellous, cheap set and is available on Brilliant Classics, I LOVE it, highly recommended:


Track listing is available here, it contains the ballets, symphony 6 and suites 3 & 4:

I don't have either of the sets you have mentioned above but I would not hesitate to buy a copy of the Dorati.

Thank you for that Seán; I will check that one out later. I like Ansermet.
