RE: Anyone going to fork over $600 for the Rattle Brahms?

Posted by throwback on March 16, 2017 at 06:43:54:
Where did that hour go? I started (6:30 AM) with the OP's question about the $600 set of Brahms' symphonies. That led me to Michael Fremer's review of the same. But in Fremer's review, there was a link to Leonard Bernstein's absolutely brilliant You-Tube bar-by-bar discussion of the first movement of Brahms' 4th Symphony. That segued immediately into Bernstein's impromptu discussion of Mahler's Das Lied Von Der Erde. I could have kept this up all day. The music and the discussion have given me an incredible emotional lift that will carry me through the rest of the day.
