That reminds me. I have a box set of Julius Katchen playing Brahms solo piano works that I like but haven't listened to in ages. Time to dig it out (of wherever I left it...).

Oh yeah!  Katchen's Brahms is wonderful.

Symphony No. 5

I like this set a lot. But for many of the works included it's the only recording I've heard, so I can't pretend to rank it vs. alternatives.
