It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

my response on Eroica was incomplete

I recently listened and reviewed in my mind the Szell/Clev., Szell/Bayreuth/Czech Phil, some of Bernstein/VPO (confess, need to relisten to LP) and must listen to mono Klemp, stereo Klemp, Szell SACD version/Clev., Dohnanyi/Clev. LP, and so on. I must review again Reiner's mono LP and others.

But the one I got in my head was Schmidt-Isserstedt cd coupled on Weekend Classics London with the Egmont music (excerpts) by Szell all with VPO. Fast, but not HIP fast. Powerful beautiful sound. Fat London type, with articulation and detail still there, but with a bit of tape hiss remaining for the purists. :)

I have been in a project and covered 11 Beethoven 5ths thus far.
