Brahms and Tchaikovsky


I'm looking for audiophile-quality, exciting performances for Brahms' 3rd and 4th symphonies and Tchaikovsky's piano concertos (all on CD). I currently have the van Cliburn for Tchaikovsky's #1 and Zubin Mehta with the Israel Philharmonic for the Brahms.

I'm looking for some more recordings to try here. Sound quality is a high priority.

Thanks in advance,

Michael

Hard to recommend something that is not at least a good performance. What good is great sound if the performance is mediocre?

For the Tchaikovsky try Santiago Rodriguez with the Sofia Philharmonic, conducted by Emil Tabakov. It is an Elan CD #2228. It is a 1996 recording. Also comes with the Grieg and Liszt
