I agree that the Mercuries might be a good start. My favorites:Resphighi Ancient Airs and Dances
Stravinsky Firebird
Rachmaninov ctos 2, 3
Bach Cello Suitesbut I don't think there's a dud.
Also, of the RCA's my favorites are the Munch Ravel Daphis et Chloe and the Reiner Bartok, but they are all enjoyable.
I would look at the Fischer recordings of Dvorak 8,9 on Phillips. Also the Pentatone Mozart horn concertos, the Sony Midori/Eschenbach Mozart, the Fine Arts Quartet/Gandelman Mozart Quintets on Lyrinx, and the Bach Christmas Oratorio on Channel. Also for Bach, the Orchestral Suites on Telarc. For Mahler, any of the MTT/SFO recordings. I think the Haydn Symphonies disc on Pentatone is enjoyable, as is the Vivaldi concertos on Sony.
