In Reply to: Wow! - Precise articulation is the one thing I did NOT hear in that (stereo) Scherchen performance posted by Chris from Lafayette on August 21, 2016 at 11:07:05:
Just to check my own memory, I'm listening to the stereo 3rd as I type. I'm not hearing clunkers, intonation problems or ragged entrances. Can you provide specific measures as examples?
Yes, the infamously fast last movt--the only Scherchen about which most people have read --oops--**heard** (ahem) is a slightly bumpy ride but not representative of the whole and mostly mono cycle.
In any case, do try the 5th someday: if it doesn't float your boat then Scherchen's B isn't for you.
Lately though, I've been enjoying Karajan's 60s cycle immensely, and I'm not a cycle kind of guy, nor was I expecting it to be so vital and alive.
