Brahms and Tchaikovsky

I'm looking for audiophile-quality, exciting performances for Brahms' 3rd and 4th symphonies and Tchaikovsky's piano concertos (all on CD). I currently have the van Cliburn for Tchaikovsky's #1 and Zubin Mehta with the Israel Philharmonic for the Brahms.

I'm looking for some more recordings to try here. Sound quality is a high priority.

Thanks in advance,

Michael

You can try Kleiber's version of Brahms 4th recently reissued under the DG Originals label. The performance is exemplary (my other versions are/were Walter/Sony, Abbado/DG and Bernstein/DG) and makes up for only having 40 minutes of music on a CD. Sound is "good" -- I can't say for sure I take performance over sonic qualities all the time -- but I'm sure it will be quite sufficient.

Good luck.
