Greetings!!!
There is a wonderful guide:
"The NPR Guide to building a classical CD collection"
It lists 350 essential works with extensive notes on each.
You may be able to buy it from Amazon
Enjoy your journey
Classical Music - Check this out!!

I'm starting a Classical Music (cd) Collection and this seems to be a great resource.
I know this is a lot to ask, but most of the recommendation links are broken. Anyone have some suggestions as to which are the best renditions of each work?
TIA

As Sir Thomas Beecham said:
This afternoon, and every year, my partner goes to a specialist Baroque Christmas concert led from the harpsicord. I go shopping. Another Beecham quote:
Bach had to make do with the instruments he had, and unfortunately the piano was not one of them |
i dont think there is progress in a technological sense with musical instruments. Harpsichord to my ears sound marvellous in many case. Piano too . I think a didgeridoo is as valuable as an organ but the two are used in different context...
I am fascinated by Peter Pringles youtube site about ancient music and ancient instruments : Building My Replica Of The Gold Lyre Of Urhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjTqKPaiip0
Then after building the old instrument this 80 years old artist sing the hymn in sumerian : A Song Of Dumuzid And Inana In Sumerian
