Khatia Buniatishvili's version is the best of the live performances I could find.

Rachmaninoff - Piano Concerto #2 in C Minor, Op. 18
This version is Rachmaninoff playing piano. This is the version I've enjoyed since 1976.

I went to a concert today featuring Shostakovich’s string quartets 7, 8, and 9. It was very moving for me to see them live, especially performed so well.



Shostakovich - Cello Concerto No. 1
