  1. Brahms' Violin Concerto performed by David Oistrakh, Otto Klemperer, and the Orchestre National de la Radiodiffusion Française, as heard in this set:
  2. From this listener's perspective, Rozhdestvensky is the finest interpreter of Prokofiev's symphonies.
  3. Brahms: Symphony No. 4 / Sir John Barbirolli, Hallé Orchestra (Warner Classics; originally Pye)
