From years gone by.

And a fairly decent re-mastering, all things considered.

Not sure I'm going to jump on this pre-order opportunity what with being able to stream it on QOBUZ which I suspect is about as good as this re-mastering can sound.

Chris has already skewered her Sibelius VC recording.

I liked her Brahms much better than I did the Sibelius. I haven't heard this alternate Brahms performance with Desormiere.

Sound of the first movement is OK but for some reason it gets pretty poor later in the second movement.

I like her playing on the Brahms.

Haven't gotten to the Beethoven.
