2. Rubinstein playing Schuman's Carnival
3. Boulez conducting the Cleveland Orchestra in a program featuring Robert Marcellus playing Debussey's Premiere Rhapsody, Raphael Druian playing the Berg Concerto and a performance of Stravinsky's Le Sacre
4. Michaelangeli's Beethoven "Emperor" Concerto with the Detroit Symphony
5. Glenn Gould playing Beethoven, Hindemith, Bach and Brahms
6. Jesse Norman singing Wagner with Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra
7. Dietrich Fischer-Discau's (forgive my abysmal spelling) Schubert's Wintereise
8. Stern, Istomin and Rose playing Brahms Trios

I don't have ten...and some of mine are definitely different definitions of "great" most likely. I'll edit if I think of any more.
1. Kronos Quartet playing Reich's "Different Trains" live (and not so live!)
2. Burt Hara playing Nielsen's Concerto about 3-4 years ago with MN Orch
3. Ivo Papazov both times I've heard him live
4. 2 upperclassmen performing Cage's 4'33" for our Music History 101 class when I was a freshman at Oberlin (man was it an eye-opener for me!)
5. Listening to Bulgarian musicians in their village for their annual village festival in 2001

Not in any particular order:
1. Benny Goodman at Memorial Hall, I think with the Dayton Phil
2. Chic Corea at a large club
3. Maynard with big band at a small club
4. Michael Brecker was amazing at every venue
5. Blood, Sweat & Tears with David Clayton Thomas and a great horn section
6. Doc Severinsen with (I think) Stan Kenton orchestra, in a high school gym
7. Earth, Wind & Fire in Grant Park on the Chicago lakefront
8. Joe Lukasik with the Faux Frenchmen
9. Gerry Mulligan in a master class
10. Jimmy McGarry - local tenor player who was just a monster player

Brubeck w. Desmond, Wright and Morello (orig DB quartet) at Phila Orch Pension fund concert c. 1965
(I got to meet Desmond backstage, and even Gigliotti stuck around to hear the quartet after the orchestral part of the program was finished, and said that he loved to hear Desmond play)
