Music Recommendations based on Seven Albums

I was thinking that it might be interesting to start a thread to get recommendations based on seven provided albums. I always enjoy getting recommendations from people to consider adding to my collection.

I'll start:

Paganini: After a Dream - Regina Carter
The Canadian Tenors
Legends - James Galway & Phil Coulter
Solo - Ning Feng
Vivaldi The Four Seasons - Jacques Louussier Trio
Italian Concertos - Gabor Boldoczki
Looking for You - Allan Taylor

Now you can either provide me with a suggestion and/or add a list of your own and see what people recommend for you.

I found it very difficult to just pick seven even though my collection is fairly small.

Saint Saen - Symphony No. 3 (Organ)
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue

Like everyone else, my list could go on and on.

Also, have you had the opportunity to hear it performed live? I saw it last season at the Seattle Symphony and could easily make it a yearly adventure.

Hello Mceljo,
I'm fortunate? to have what many say is the original version of this album, the RCA Red Seal.

LP's
RCA Red Seal LSC-2341, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Charles Munch Cond.
Classic Records Re-Issue, 45rpm Series, one-sided Pressing, 4 album set.

CD's
JVC XRCD2 Re-Master, JMCXR-0002.
Deutsche Grammophon, 419 617-2, Berlin Philharmonic, James Levine Cond.
Seraphim Classics, CDR 7243 5 73430 22, National Orchestra of France.

The RCA is in MINT condition, and sounds the best considering it's age. The Classic Records did a great job when they re-mastered this LP, Great sound.
The JVC is a great CD. The other 2 CD's I do not listen to since I got the JVC.
I have never had the opportunity to hear it preformed live. If my performing arts center ever does it I will be sure to go.
