When you say that you were disappointed with the Saint-Saens symphony upon first hearing I assume you mean the performance. Right? Just an observation, most comments I read about the performance upon first listen contain some degree of disappointment. My experience certainly supports that. I think your final decision will come after additional listens. One thing for sure the performance is not matter-of-course. In fact, it could be termed "unrepresentative" and will probably never rise to the top.It appears that Eschenbach's is as controversial as his Saint-Saens symphony. See Link below
