The recently remastered original recording of In C by Terry Riley.
The piece changed me forever when I first heard it in 1968.
I wore out the LP, torturing my friends in the process.

I have that Op. 40, No. 1 by Rubinstein recorded in 1964, Elisabeth.  Might as well throw that on as I finish up some chores down in the workroom, though I need to keep it down as Mrs. Bogey has a stream of baroque going upstairs.

[Bogey]

Well, that was enough to have me keep the disc going:

Chopin
Pollonaises Op. 45, 53, and 61
Rubinstein
RCA Gold Seal

[Bogey]

Beethoven
Serenade in D major for flute, violin, and viola, Op. 25

Brilliant Classics
Recorded 1990

Very nice chamber piece.

Right now, I've got my Tchaikovsky on.  Concerto #1 in B flat Minor.  I'm listening to the Cliburn 1958 version from Moscow.  WOW.  The man is truly amazing, but he does not come across as such when you see him in person.  I was lucky enough to see him on the "Farewell Tour" in San Diego.   Music, sublime.  Some of his Debussy made me cry.  Unfortunately, the man had no real connection with his audience..I listened to him with my eyes closed.  Rubinstein and Horowitz are completely different.  I've heard CDs made when both were very old, and had quite a few butterfingers.  It didn't matter...The joy and passion of these elderly gentlemen  made me want to thrust my arm into the air and yell "YES!!"

Listen to Chopin's Military Polonaise by Rubinstein  with extreme caution...(lol)  It might just blow all your fuses....
