Dale Clevenger, Stefan Dohr, Ignacio Garía, Georg Schreckenberger play Schumann's Konzertstück for four horns and orchestra in F major, op. 86. Daniel Barenboim conducting
A wonderful rendition of Poulenc's Sonata for Clarinet and Piano with Michael Collins (Clarinet) and Julien Quentin (Piano)

Part 1:
An incredible performance of Bach's Chaconne,
played by the great Hungarian Guitarist & Lutenist, Gergely Sárközy - made in 1988.
It is an utterly compelling interpretation; to my mind it's one of the very best.
