Beethoven Piano Concerto No.5: Gilels/Sandering.

Too bad that this record isn't the quietest otherwise, it's pretty good listen.

My fave is still Gould/Stokowski version so far.

Oops! (wrong picture) should be brown and say... "Organ Concertos 14-16"

Otherwise it's the same.

 

I think the music is different : )

Stu,

 

You may have Bach mixed up with Mozart but I'm sure both men wouldn't mind

Aha but you will have spotted I said 'may have'. In any case, Mozart wrote Figaro when he was around 30...

Lucie de Lammermoor, Donizetti's own French adaptation of his Lucia. Some music and bit of the story has changed, but the main attraction is Natalie Dessay as a Lucie of flesh and blood.
