Recommended CD's for classical good recording ?

If you're looking for specific recommendations perhaps a time period or composers names would be helpful.

If you like early music like Mozart, Bach, Corelli etc performed on period instruments take a look at www.preludeklassiekemuziek.nl. You won't be dissappointed.

Unfortunately,when it coes to Classical,Vinyl still rules.The Quality of the musics and the abundance of unique performance in Vinyls,make it a worthwile for any Classical music lovers to invest in analogue rigs, even a basic one.

SACDs are not bad,but still a long way behind in term of large scale orchestra.

^highly recommended, brilliant performance and beautiful example of great SA-CD sound

Thanks for the responses. This gives me somewhere to start. The local classical music store has a huge Naxos catalogue, so that suggestion is helpful.

Regarding what I am looking for: I really don't know! Growing up in a small rural town and getting my degree in chemical engineering didn't exactly introduce me to a range of music, so I am not familiar with what I like enough to be on the lookout for any particular piece. You could consider me musically illiterate. Probably my favorite 2 pieces that I have heard are Brandenburg Concertos and the 4 Seasons. I have both on Naxos re-releases.
