This one is probably the most extreme DR i can find (24 bit hdtracks download from Chcago symphony orchestra own label recording). As you can see the second movement is 10 mins long and never gets above -11.6 db. The fourth movement is 5 mins long and never gets above -21.8dB. This is all very well and laudable dynamically but it's a bit of a pain to set the volume for.
