Excellent recording of Mozart Jupiter No.41 ?


Does anyone know of an excellent digital recording of the Jupiter symphony? I don't mean a DDD recording, just one available on CD or HDCD. Thanks,

Todd

The greatest performance of this symphony bar none is a late fifties recording by Fritz Reiner/Chicago Symphony. I don't know it is available anywhere but it was aprt of a set "The Last Three Symphonies." The sound is good but the performance is astonishing; the counterpoint of the last movement is so brilliantly architected that all others pale by comparison--and there are other good performances.
