New to classical..looking for recommendations


Hello, I just heard the SACD "Vivaldi Concertos for the Emperor" by Andrew Manze and loved it. I am looking to buy more classical CDs but pretty know next to nothing about this genre. I would greatly appreciate any recommendations for other CDs or SACDs that a novice like me should consider. Thank you.

I second Lowrider 57’s “Amazon" suggestion. It’s a terrific source that allows you to audition before buying and provides you with the option to buy new or used from a variety of customer rated sellers.

Begin with a search of the "Living Stereo” catalog. You’ll be introduced to a number of fine classic recordings, by storied conductors and orchestras, in both CD and hybrid SACD. The prices for these are usually very reasonable. I’ve taken note that there is a 60 CD box set being offered for less that $83. That’ll get you up and running.
