Listened to 1 and 2 last night...

And your assessment of #1 was pretty much spot-on. I have to admit that I almost always find the second movement kind of dull and boring, but not so in this performance, which was so warm and loving. The wonderfully burnished sound of the orchestra was a marvel.
However, moving on to #2, I was a bit disappointed. Unlike the 1st, the 2nd just seemed inert and uninspired. Here my standard-bearer is the old Walter/NYP and Nelsons was just too dull and earthbound. Will need a few more listens.
Now on to the 3rd and 4th!
