Thanks, I know Maazel is all time favorite, but I've always felt a bit short-changed in the "amour" dept, esp. Balcony scene.Also, Weller's TAS listed 6th is a bit soft-edged for my tastes. I imprinted on Jarvi's.
Edit: forgot to mention though, man: Kitajenko's Rachmaninoff "The Bells" on Melodiya is IMHO fantastic when it comes to atmosphere, esp in 2nd mov't. It's the only K I know, so I'll definitely look out for his Prokofiev.
