Whom do you have in the concerti?

Morning, people!

And still more from Verbier:

Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 5 (Pletnev/Verbier Festival Orchestra) - Again, beautifully filmed, and a stirring performance.

The recording that finally made Apollo click with me (and the Agon and Orpheus are pretty good too).
