Mozart: 25th symphony, 1st movement. I still get chills listening to the
strings in the first 30 seconds or so.(Mackerras/PCO, TELARC)
Mendelssohn: Violin Concerto, 1st movement. Fairly self explanatory
Brahms: 2nd Piano Concerto, 2nd movement. I first heard Craig Sheppard play
this piece with the University Symphony and have been a fan of both
since.(Any suggestions? I have Barenboim with the New Philharmonia
Orchestra on EMI Classics)
Barber: Violin Concerto, 1st movement. Lyricism at it's best
IMO.(Shaham/LSO, DG)
