I'm not "seasoned" enough as a Classical listener (only 20 years or so) to have definitive faves yet..

I Do however agree with my go to FM stations 2022 #1 pick

Ludwig V's 9th.

The Classical California Ultimate Playlist Returns | See What Made The List - Classical KUSC

Perhaps a generic/vanilla pick for discerning Classical afficionados, but the history/story behind the piece and Ludwig V's debut performance left me intrigued and a fan since learning about it.

The 2nd movement played VERY loud of my pristine 1959 RCA Living Stereo press never fails to catch my attention.

Of the countless interpretations of this masterpiece, this one is my favorite. Strongly recommended for anyone building a Classical collection with "Golden Age" Living Stereo LP's.

Cheap, probably "better" than most reissue or audiophool  copies.
