Here are some good samplers:
DGG "An Die Musik" Das 4d-Konzert 445 809-2
unforturnatly, can't find the link

HDCD SAMPLER VOL l
http://www.referencerecordings.com/SAMPLE.HTML
Proprius 1994 Classical sampler
https://www.elusivedisc.com/prodinfo.asp?number=PRCD%209107&variation=&aitem=15&mitem=15
OPUS 3 TEST CD 4.1
http://www.opus3records.com/artists/samp/19400.htm
Both the DGG and the B&W sampler are those "mainstream" classical selections like the RCA title, both with good sound quality.
The latter 3 are Hi-End quality samplers. The music selections are very enjoyable, not those "technical sound only" CDs.
If you don't mind some new music, then the Narada sampler "Discovery Narada" CD-9002E (no link) would be a nice try. (Not classical music)

Try to get the exact version and CD because there are major differences between brands and productions (mastering).
If you need more, I'll try to post some more.
