Just for reassurnce, I too hear the harshness at the forte entry of the strings with the lyrical theme after the "massacre" episode. I have a very different system and have little doubt that my room doesn't resemble yours either.
So a reasonable conclusion that it is the recording and not your gear or listening space.
I have found the sound of orchestral strings playing at anything over mf has often been hard for digital media to capture properly and have spent a fortune over the years chasing a solution to that.
