Classical overload

May 16, 2008 14:29

As you know by now I am cuckoo for SA-CD. Once my amazon.com shipment gets here (it's taking forever...) I will have all of the following music in this glorious format:

Bach:
- Concerto for Two Violins

Bartok:
- Concerto for Orchestra

Beethoven:
- Symphony No.3 "Eroica"
- 12 Contretanze
- Finale, Creatures of Prometheus

Berlioz:
- Symphonie Fantastique

Brahms:
- Concerto for Violin and Cello

Britten:
- Four Sea Interludes

Debussy:
- La Mer (x2 as it turns out)

Gerswhin:
- Piano Concerto in F
- Rhapsody in Blue

Glazunov:
- Violin Concerto

Holst:
- The Planets Suite

Ibert:
- Escales

Mahler:
- Das Lied von der Erde
- Symphony No. 6 "Tragic"

Mozart:
- Sinfonia Concertante

Prokoifev:
- Violin Concerto No. 2

Rachmaninov:
- Piano Concerto No. 2

Ravel:
- Daphnis et Chloe

Respighi:
- Pines of Rome
- Fountains of Rome

Saint-Seans:
- Symphony No. 3 "Organ"

Sibelius:
- Violin Concerto

Strauss, R.:
- Also Sprach Zarathustra
- Ein Heldenleben

Stravinsky:
- The Rite of Spring

Tchakovsky:
- Symphony No. 4
- Symphony No. 6 "Pathetique"
- Piano Concerto No. 1
- Nutcracker Suite
- The Seasons

Now, this collection is very satisfying, and I would probably be able to live if I never got another SA-CD. But since I am certifiably insane, I still want to build my collection, so I turn to you for guidance. In your opinion, what am I sorely lacking in my classical SA-CD collection? Give me your best recommendations, since I don't know where to start personally (though I have some ideas, I want to hear from you first!). I'm open to all suggestions, although some of it might not be available on SA-CD.
