Now I am in the "what percentage of the discs have i listened to and was it really all that worthwhile?" mode.  The answer is clearly yes, but from the percentage perspective I am mindful that I have not been bothering the scorers nearly enough to be truly maximising enjoyment  .

James Ehnes, Andrew Armstrong - Beethoven: Violin Sonatas 1-3 & Variations on Se Vuol Ballare

Fitzwilliam String Quartet - Shostakovich: Last Three String Quartets

A recording marking the 50th anniversary of their first release of the full Shostakovich string quartet cycle.  Apparently they were the first group to perform the last three in "the West", and the first quartet to perform and record all fifteen.
