IMHO it's hard to mess that portion up, as long as soprano and tenor tone other down a bit, something Nilsson couldn't seem to do.Where Furt scores for me is making the other acts interesting. He's seriously the master of the ebb and flow and the Philharmonia is a force a nature. They "become" the ocean.
Non lp enthusiasts are going to laugh, but the early uk pressings are best and most involving. I buy every copy I find. The HMV black label is the last of the "immersive" pressings.
