I thought it'd be great for us to share some of our favorite recordings and performances in this thread.
Please list enough information so members can locate and purchase the recording (if available). I understand that many of our favorites are on LP and may not be in print.
Here's a starter on CD:
Charpentier: Le Malade Imaginaire This is a recording of a small troupe singing both solo and group parts with early instrumental accompaniment. I use the recording as one of my references for vocal purity and imaging/soundstaging. Les Arts Florissants under William Christie provide dependable quality in all their works, this being no exception.

I'm looking forward to building my collection with some recommendations from all of you.
