The violin sonata is well recorded a number of times, for instance by:
Gurmiaux/Sebok (1979)
Thibaud/Cortot (1929)
Chung/Lupu (1977)
Heifetz/Smith (1971)
Menuhin/Oborin (1945)
Oisrakh/Richter (1968)
The same goes for the piano quintet:
Curzon/Members of the VPO (1962)
Richter/Borodin Qt. (1990)
Aller/Hollywood Qt. (1952)
I would need a few recommendations for the string quartet, my recording of
the Bettler-Reis Qt.can't be the last word on this.
The symphony in D minor is also often and well recorded. I like among
others:
the two recordings by Munch
Sanderling
Rodzinsky
Variations Symphoniques ditto:
Rubinstein did a great job with Wallenberg
Maria Grinberg's recording is also very good.
I'm sure others will have more recommendations.
Whie we're at it I would like to draw attention to the intiogiuing works
for harmonium & piano, very well recorded by Jos van Immerseel (!) & Joris
Verdin
Philip
