In Reply to: Glad you liked his Brahms 1st. I assumed its more stormy and "Wagnerian" quality wouldn't have suited him posted by jdaniel@jps.net on May 23, 2015 at 07:31:54:
You're allowed to listen to more than one version, you know. As a very young (pre-teen) kid listening to classical radio, it was almost a joke how everything they played was by Ansermet and the OSR. Now the opposite is true, and he's almost forgotten except for the connoisseurs.
I have his Beethoven symphonies 1 and 8 on my iPod, downloaded from somewhere, both good. I don't have his no. 6, but I do have a good no. 6 from Steinberg and the Pittsburgh Symphony, surprisingly gentle and lyrical.
