Serious gap in my collection. Taking suggestions.

Mr. Green wants classical with young males.
That thread title scares me.
(you mean young males singing or playing instruments?)

LOL i felt the same way, and the extremely brief OP didn't really clear up anything..............

I will say that Bernstein's 2nd recording of Mahler's 4th features an 11 year old boy soprano on the final movement instead of the more tradition female soprano......careful how you word your thread titles though, wouldn't want us to think something you don't mean

Bernstein used the Vienna Boys' Choir on a number of occasions. So did Abaddo for Mahler 3.

I worded it to describe exactly what I want; the young male voice in some recordings as I do not have any (but I recall hearing some in the past and it was great).

Anyone who would interpret it as anything else needs counselling.

J.S. Bach's "Mass in B-minor," as performed by The King's Consort/Robert King conductor, on Hyperion, features boys' voices instead of female singers. This was the practice during Bach's time. The recording is splendid and provides a collector with an alternative interpretation.

LOL I didn't interpret it that way until I started reading the responses.

 

[Henry Flower]

Virtually any of Bach's cantatas from the series by Harnoncourt.

 

[radiohlite]

Bernstein's Chichester Psalms has an amazing part for boy treble.
