Disc 7:
- Piano Trio No. 3 in C minor, Op. 101 - with  H. Szeryng & P. Fournier
- Piano Quintet in F minor, Op. 34 - with the Guarneri Quartet

Great performances. I had most of this on lp back in the day, replaced them with early cd editons and currently have them in the BIG box.

After the Brahms, I tend to gravitate to the Schubert trios.

Yes, totally agree. Rubinstein's Brahms is wonderful.

I'll have to investigate. Never heard any of Rubinstein's Schubert recordings. :tup

Ricci American Decca box, disc 8.  I think I feel sorry for the guy.  While obviously talented and hard-working, he wasn't very attractive.  So I think he was pidgeon-holed as a "shredder" - someone who could play really fast, like a classical Eddie Van Halen.  It's very possible he could also play slowly and movingly, but wasn't called on to do that.  So this album seems like an endless procession of 32nd notes.

Outstanding ....

Agreed.  I found this was my first complete Ma Vlast.  It really needs to be heard as a whole.  Stunning and moving.

Next:
