Haydn symphonies are never absent from my listening habits for long and today it has been no.86 - I think this has a particularly fine finale. In fact listened to that last movement twice.

Neville Marriner conducted the soundtrack for Amadeus. I also like Solti's version with the VPO. I'm not keen on Karajan's version.'Man know thyself'

Goldgerg Varations
Both Glenn Gould versions; currently the performance by Andras Schiff.
I was prompted to get the GG recordings when I turned on my car radio and I heard the Bach Gamba Sonatas. I was SURE it was GG on the piano and.... sure enough, it was! He is so good with the Bach. And so bad w/ Mozart. I don't have any of his Beethoven recordings other than the Lizst transcriptions of Symphonies 5 & 6.
All the best,Zevy
