Schubert, Walton, Mozart

Schubert: Octet in F, op.166, performed by the Vienna Octet (Decca SXL 21043 B; very early German pressing of SXL 2028/London CS 6051). Famous performance and excellent sound; however, my Decca/London UK pressings have much quieter vinyl.

Walton Belshazzar's Feast, Coronation Te Deum, performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, Choir conducted by Georg Solti; soloist Benjamin Luxon (London OS 26525; same as Decca SET 618). Although I prefer the Previn on EMI, Solti's incisive interpretation is still valid. Spectacular Wilkinson/Lock sound--especially the Te Deum.

Mozart Quintets: g min., k.516, D, k.593, performed by the Heutling String Quartet+Heinz Otto-Graf (2nd Viola) (EMI HQS 1120). Musically sublime; sonically very good, but not quite top drawer.
