Decca, 2002 Gruberova's Extraordinary "Mein Herr Marquis", Sumi Jo's winning "Der hölle Rache" I bought that 2-CD set only for the extraordinary performance of Adele's "Laughing Song" ("Mein Herr Marquis") by Edita Gruberova.

EMI Classics, 1994 Always on my CD changer I bought this CD long ago as a neophyte in opera appreciation.

Sony, 1990 The best recordings I've ever heard of the Brandeburg I love Bach, and I particularly love the Brandeburg Concertos, and I've never heard a recording of them as good as this one. The sound quality is also first rate. Even if you already own a recording of the Brandenburg Concertos you owe it to yourself to buy this one.             Beethoven: Symphonies Nos. 7 & 8 Gerald Corey, Milan Turkovic, ... Sony, 1990 Beethoven for the first time Listening to this recording is like discovering well-known music again. The only competetive version of the 7th symhony is Toscanini's old one with the New York Philharmonic (better than the later NBC version) - but the sound is mediocre.
