RE: I have the Leinsdorf/Rubinstein & Szell/Gilels...

agree, lacking.

to my ear, as a Szell enthusiast and collector for over 40 years, I don't think these Gilels Beethoven records represent his best work. He seems rushed and brusque and not as tuneful as before, and I think his cancer was affecting him by then. the sound is not good, either, imho.
