The data base, growing by 1.5 million items annually, records the collections of some 10,000 libraries from Finlandto London to Peoria to Tokyo including sound recordings. OCLC recently published a list of the top 150 recording performances in the ditabase.

The results are not a popularity poll. They are a record of the individual unique performances that serious libraries have chosen to collect, catalog and retain for posterity. They encompass all music performances in the database, regardless of genre. Here is a partial list.
