Two long, closely packed aisles—one of new CDs, one of used—fill the south end of Silver Platters’ LQA store and form the one classical-music department in the area where you can reliably assume you’ll be able to walk out with anything you go in looking for. It offers composers from Komei Abe to Ellen Taaffe Zwilich, lush selections of DVDs and opera box sets, and new-releases shelves to keep you abreast of an industry that doomsayers said was supposed to have died a decade ago.
