Borodin's chamber music is definitely worth seeking out. His String Quartet and piano quintet are gems.
Franck's Piano Quintet is a very fine work. I like the LP by Pennario, Primrose, Piatigorsky, and Heifetz.
Tchaikovsky's Sextet "Souvenir de Florence" is a classic. The recording by the Borodin String Quartet with Rostropovich is good, but there is a recording by the Guarneri Quartet that is also recommendable.
Rachmaninoff's Cello Sonata is a splendid work. The LP by Shapiro and Wild is very good. It's coupled with Kodaly's cello sonata.
The Chopin cello sonata is also excellent. The recording by Rostropovich with Argerich is very good.
Taneyev's Piano Quartet and Piano Trio are both exceptionally fine. (Russia's chamber music festival/competition is named for him.)
Off the beaten path, American composer Arthur Foote wrote some very good chamber music. I especially like his piano trios and his String Quartet. The LPs by the Williams Trio is good.
Piston's Quartets are interesting. Look for LPs by the Portland Quartet.
Gilels, Kogan, and Rostropovich made a fine recording of Saint-Saens' Piano Trio.
Arensky's Trio, recorded by Littauer, Terebesi, and Michel is good, if you run across it.
Well, that's kind of overkill, and I could think of a lot more if I tried. But if you want a different view, you might want to post this over on the Vinyl Asylum forum.
