C/D: Bela Bartok

but I'd still beg to differ with merely "a good 'un" it's much better than that!

Fair, fair, I'm just a huge Zoltán Kocsis stan and his Bartók matches my layman's understanding of his music, so I tend to get carried away sometimes. I'm also liable to say things like: the Takács Quartet's 1996 recording of the string quartets is second to none and you should accept no substitute! Anyway, I'll revisit the Anda/Fricsay – it's been too long.
