I share the opinion that his tenor playing is more to my taste. The Prestige session that Chuck mentioned is one I especially like. Hamilton's clarinet playing generally sounded more like a "legit" style player. It (with a few exceptions) lacked the jazz feeling that I hear in other clarinet players I like.

I (with limited exceptions) prefer to hear Bach on piano not harpsichord. Gould has been a longtime favorite of mine, especially on Bach. In fact, just acquired his set of the 5 Beethoven Piano Concertos. Thus far, the couple I have heard were better than I had expected.
