One of the more obvious ones is the Elgar Cello Concerto with Du Pre &
Sea Pictures with Dame Janet Baker. Also the Elgar Symphonies.
He also made some excellent Sibelius recordings including recordings
with both the Halle Orchestra & the London Philharmonic of the Symphony
No. 2. With the Halle Orchestra he made a fine disc of Finlandia, the
Karelia Suite & a few other tone poems. There's also a rather good
Debussy La Mer & Three Nocturnes.
