Here are five records from my collection that I'd be sad to lose:
Stravinsky's "Firebird," the 45 rpm 3LP Classic Records reissue of the Dorati Mercury SR90226. An amazing reissue of a marvelous recording.
Malcolm Arnold's "Eight English Dances" on Lyrita SRCS 109 - Arnold is a composer I enjoy immensely and I love the orchestration of these works.
Enescu's "Sonata No. 3 for Violin and Piano in Romanian Folkstyle," with Sherban Lupu on violin and Claude Cymerman on piano, Alturus AIR 2 9012 - my favorite performance of this characterful work, marvelously well recorded.
"La Spagna" (Music of Spain from the 15th-17th Centuries), performed by Paniagua/Atrium Musicae Madrid on BIS LP 163/164.
Ravel, "Pavane pour une Infante Defunte" Skrowaczewski and the Minnesota Orchestra, Reference Recordings limited edition reissue (RM 1001) of a Vox recording by Aubort and Nickrenz.
Tomorrow it might be a different list, but this is today's...
