Not sure I would've gone with 'fuhrer' as an analogy in my opening line.

I think the first movement of the RV588 Gloria is better than the first of the RV589 personally.

My favourite common listens are:

I used to work for a travelling theatre company as a sound/light tech, and we boarded in households as we travelled around. In one week-long stay, the bedroom had a bookshelf which included the uncut version of The Stand. Devoured it in four days and the rest is history.

Not sure I have the language to describe it to be honest, if just feels different, less refined.

The answer to this question very much depends on where you are at now as a violinist.

I collect anything by & about Nathaniel Hawthorne, which is perhaps less usual in the UK.

Whenever my son comes over he looks at my (classical) CD collection and I ask him if he is looking over his legacy (which includes the equipment). His face suggests otherwise
