    Today, Beethoven by Harnoncourt and Mahler by Tilson-Thomas. The Beethoven I'm enjoying, the Tilson-Thomas doesn't sound that much different from Bernstein.

    George, Is Schubert Piano Sonata D960 your all-time Schubert's favorite?

    It's up there, though Richter's D894 has to take top honors. I am a big fan of the Impromptus as well, Pires has an incredible set (of Impromptus.)

    I will not be surprised if WarnerMusic re-issues the set ...

    I think the D959 by Brendel, which I am listening to now, is pretty nice as well.

    I think I have that in an earlier incarnation, with the gold cover.

    I have the Toscanini's LvB set as well. I think the set by HvK with the Philharmonia Orchestra is excellent. It is a whole lot faster than the 1977 version with BPO. BTW, I am still not sold on Beethoven symphonies performed on period instruments ...

    I had a Mozart PC by Staier. I didn't like the tinkiness.
