'Well, no I wouldn't but let's go back to the original post which said (exact quote):"I'm finding it hard to choose good classical CD recordings with all the various performances and vintages available. Would anyone be able to recommend 5 superb sounding, well played CDs? I'm thinking the more popular symphonies or concertos from Mozart, Beethoven etc. as a place to start. "'
Except you forgot the title of the thread which was "Recommend 5 *TOP* classical recordings" so I don't think it's such a stretch to figure that he wants suggestions of what people would consider their "top 5" or "5 top" if you want to be literal.
Yes he said recording not piece of music, but it shouldn't be a surprise that for many they are not far apart.
So what is 19th century aural wallpaper? Brahms? Tchaikovsky? Wagner?
If I'm supposed to answer your "challenge", presumably to clear my name from the accusation of being unable to adequately name five good recordings/pieces of music, I'll pass thanks and go on living in shame. We should have another thread that rates the top 5 recommendations of top 5, and see who wins... fun.
My point is that you chose an awfully strange thread to make a big deal about 20th century music, and the fact that other people didn't name any in their "5 top" is no reflection of their relative awareness of it.
