It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Severance, I think

I'm pretty sure that all of the EMI recordings of the Cleveland Orchestra were made at Severance. That would include the Brahms Double with Oistrakh and Rostropovich, the Dvorak Symphony 8, and the Schubert 9th, in addition to the Beethoven concertos with Gilels.

As far as I know (Todd or somebody correct me if I'm wrong), the Cleveland Orchestra didn't start recording at the Masonic Temple until after Szell died. After that, the orchestra recorded in both locations until recently, when their DG and video recordings (with Boulez and Welser-Moest) have come from live performances at Severance (except for the miserable Beethoven 9th with W-M, which was from a live performance in Florida).
