Craig, was that the performance of Carmina Burana at the Bowl on Tuesday night that you heard?
Chamber music compositions for just about every possible combination of instruments exist, including cello and piano(general category "cello sonata"). There are a whole bunch and I'll suggest
these French compositions as an excellent collection at a bargain price.
The
Tchaikovsky collection on 7 discs that we discussed in the past which includes all the symphonies and some other works is still outstanding.
The
Schippers Barber collection is my top recommendation for the Adagio for Strings and the other items.
As far as the Beethoven 7th, in my view you already have the best one in the Kleiber performance with the 5th.
