Profound recommendations by Steve Smith. I'd add, though well damaging in a budgetary sense, the DG complete violin sonatas performed by Anne Sophie Mutter and Lambert Orkis.

Not his specialty (opera), but FIDELIO is quite remarkable. The MISSA SOLEMNIS is also a masterpiece. Patrice (who fell in love with Beethoven listening to... Kagel's LUDWIG VAN!).
