Brahms PC 2 - have always been averse to Gilels / Jochum but take you choice of other versions - own favourite is CBS Serkin/Ormandy (I think)
Shostakovich PC 2 - Yes - I was conquered in this by the classic CBS LP - Bernstein and NYPO
Medtner PC 3
Schumann
Rachmaninov 1 and 4
Ireland: Legend for Piano and Orchestra
Saint-Saens: PC No.2
Scriabin - such a moving work - the old Melodiya performance has not yet been trounced.
Kabalevsky 2
Tchaikovsky 2
Bax Winter Legends (magnificently imaginative and dramatic) - not at all Celtic twilight
Mozart 22 24
Arensky
Bortkiewicz 2 3
Scharwenka 1-4
Moeran Rhapsody No 3
Harty PC - romantic, wild and woolly - Tchaikovskian yet ....
Goossens Phantasy Concerto
Jacob Rhapsody for piano and brass band - a surprisingly eager and romantic work.
Joseph Marx PC 1 (Romantic) and 2 (Castelli Romani)
Malcolm Williamson 2
Stanford PC2
Healey Willan - Brit-Canadian - work comes over as akin to Rachamninov
