Classical Advise Needed

Posted by MusicHead 2 (A) on April 17, 2007 at 10:45:38

I recently scored an amazing classical collection. It's full of UK Decca, HMV and EMI pressings. I am a little green with classical but would like to find a source to try a determine which recordings are regarded as special. Is there an internet source or book that would cover this. For example: I am now listening to Tchaikovsky Sym No 4, Maazel, Vienna Phil - Decca SXL 6157. Sounds fantastic, I like the music, but is it highly regarded by classical lovers? The reason I ask is because I don't listen to classical much but I suspect if I'm exposed to the more highly regarded recordings I might get deeper into classical listening.
