The Bach Cello Suites are pretty much the only thing pre-1900 I can think of. Kodaly, Hindemith and Ligeti have sonatas. Britten, Block, Reger and Shostakovich have sets of 3 suites. Nothing much else immediately comes to mind. I'm very fond of the Britten, Kodaly and Ligeti. Sorry, I can't upload anything (on a 5GB per month connection).

Hmm could you elaborate. Perhaps the first movement of Beethoven's Op. 111 would suit (On Youtube: Richter at Leipzig or Annie Fisher should both do). | ||

Best intro ever. PS: @OP- I play trumpet too, but I cannot stand Alison Balsom's interpretation of anything. She has the technique but no style at all! Check out Phil Smith's version of legend please! | ||

Well, the thing is that ____ music threads always tend to just become people posting Youtube videos. Now while this might be an OK format for sharing/discovering new music for other genres, I feel like it doesn't really function well with classical. Especially for people who already are familiar with classical, specific performances and recordings become important, as opposed to just any Youtube video of Beethoven's fifth. And let's be honest, how many of you actually go through these kind of threads and listen to every video :3 | ||

Here you can find our interpretation of the sonata. It wasn't perfect at all at the time of the recording. The begining is fine, but the end... Ugh! I've also played the chopin piano concerto no. 1 in E minor (1st movement), my all time favorite piece. Well, glad I found that thread Cheers fellow nerd musicians! | ||

I don't know if this is a good performance or not, because I'm uploading it from work, and can't listen to it. Hopefully it does Ravel justice. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuhJjdCgPcs The Francouer sonata does not, I think, get enough recognition, if you listen to it in its entirety, it is quite a stunning piece of music. | ||

I would ask any of you with any opinion on the matter to chime in and give me ONE recording for each Beethoven symphony that you think is obscure/underrated/uncommon but you still think is amazing. Taking all suggestions ^^ | ||

Currently, I have a dozen complete sets with a handful of individual symphonies, and I'm definitely still missing quite a few legendary/recommended recordings. Now I know most of the famous ones I'm missing, but I also want to find the hidden gems.

Taking all suggestions ^^ not really "hidden gems", but rene leibowitz, scherchen, david zinman. monteux, cluytens also. again, not really hidden gems but if you dont know these conductors you really should. | ||

I have both of his NBC Orchestra cycles, but am still on the hunt for all the ones he made with the NY Phil, and I'd assume he recorded the ninth with them too.

Any particular symphony he does really well? | ||
