In Reply to: So I just opened a sealed LP that hasn't seen the light of day since 1981.... posted by jdaniel@jps.net on September 27, 2014 at 21:51:10:
If it is the NYP version, I too have a copy of this pressing and find it to be one of BOULEZ' better outings.
I know that the REINER/CO reading is commonly regarded to be the pinnacle - and I'm generally not a BOULEZ fan - but BOULEZ puts in a worthy contender in my estimation.
The Euro pressing is as quiet as a church-mouse...

- If with NYP, a very good reading IMHO... - Tone! 19:52:27 09/29/14 (10)
- Yes! I just came back here to report that Boulez really lets loose! Very involving performance and the Finale - jdaniel@jps.net 19:56:32 09/29/14 (9)

- Ahhh... ORMANDY and his PHILADELPHIANS! - Tone! 20:51:04 09/29/14 (6)
- Agreed on the Beecham Rimsky. I've not heard the Ormandy in ages. Sadly Columbia engineers weren't kind. - jdaniel@jps.net 22:03:07 09/29/14 (5)
- SONY ESSENTIAL CLASSICS... - Tone! 20:11:21 09/30/14 (4)
- Szell engineers had their good days...and bad. My fav Don Quixote is Szell's and the recording is very decent - jdaniel@jps.net 20:35:31 09/30/14 (3)
- Is the SZELL/CO/FLEISHER Beethoven 5th really that bad? - Tone! 21:00:40 09/30/14 (2)
- I generally do not buy Columbia records, but that is more of a hold-over from my 78 days... - J. S. Bach 13:12:51 10/01/14 (0)
- IMHO Columbia string sound can be a bit tizzy or "hot." nt - jdaniel@jps.net 21:17:54 09/30/14 (0)
