Any views about the Finnish conductor; Vänskä, conducting Beethoven's Eroica?This review praises Vänskä to high heaven :

Is Vänskä really as good as the review indicates?Still believe that Furtwaengler and Toscanini were the greatest conductors of Beethoven. Hope that a new conductor gives us some new insights into Beethoven's works.
