Bernstein Brahms Symphonies(en)
Here is the most convincing presentation of Brahms' symphonies that I personally have ever experienced. There is no explaining a gift like Leonard Bernstein, a true legend and one of the truly great ones of the 20th century (and a great Brahms conductor!). I have followed his career and recordings both at the NY Philharmonic and at Vienna (other places too). His brilliance and incandescence are revelatory in these Brahms performances. His view of a thorough-going romantic Brahms expressing his passionate control of an inner rage in classical form is convincing. He and this great Vienna orchestra give a consistent statement of it. And, of course, Bernstein's introductory comments are without peer.

Bernstein in Vienna: Beethoven, The Ninth Symphony(en)
To play Beethoven's music is to give oneself over completely to the child-spirit which lived in that grim, awkward, violent man.

It is simply unplayable unless we go all the way with him, as he cries out "Brüder!" - Leonard Bernstein
