as I know you are a classical maven and I am not. However, here, off the top of my head are a few essentials:

Perahia Goldberg Variations and Chopin Etudes
Boulez Rite of Spring and Stravinsky Rite of Spring
Boulez's Bartok Concerto for Orchestra
Walter's Brahams 4th and Beethoven 6th
Glenn Gould's Bach disks
Fischer's Dvorak 8th and 9th
all the Hickox Vaughan Williams releases so far
the Vaughan Williams disk on Vanguard
Kleiber's Beethoven 5th
Boulez's Ravel disk
Ormandy's Verdi Requiem

Feel free to disagree with any of these.
