Beethovens Piano Concerto No.2 Ashkenasy/Solti and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
A good early effort by Beethoven. This piece was revised many times until its final version appeared in 1798, I believe. Classical in nature but you feel a more powerfully emotional underpining trying to break through all the while. Beethovens voice is slowly emerging. I love it. The Op. 18 quartets are this way as well...

I saw that concerto performed (on TV) Friday night by the Berlin Philharmonic / Abbado and Mikhail Pletnev. It was splendid, all you said, and more. Notice my message for you above
But this morning, Symphony in d minoy, #9, L. v. Beethoven - Vienna Philharmonic / Bernstein - Marvelous way to begin Spring!

It's this morning Bruch's Violin Concerto #2, Op.44, Perlman soloist.
A pretty sweet start into the new week, but it's tasting fantastic!
PS: Is anybody of you knowing 'Das Lied von der Glocke' (The song of the bell)? Have once read, this was one of the most liked works, composed by Bruch.

Beethoven, Symphony No.4, 2nd Mvt., Bela Drahos conducting the Nicolaus Esterhazy Sinfonia (Naxos). Wonderful!
The Sonata in f# for Piano, with the optional acompaniment of Violin & Cello (OK, Piano Trio to us!) by Joseph Haydn. Like Mozart, he rarely composed in the minor mode, but when he did...
