Schubert, We are on the same page on so much stuff. Had we agreed on Mahler, I would have concluded you were my long lost twin born of a different mother and separated by 16 years. As for the LvB, those are great performances. 10 on performance, maybe 6.5 on recording quality. I pretty much love everything ever recorded by Martha. Just wish she hadn't hooked her wagon to DG. Gidon is a pro. I had looked forward to a promised set from Rachel Barton on Channel, but I understand the pianist backed out of the project.
You are a pirate, matey, making of with those sigs at that price. So glad you are finding them to your liking.
On my way to hear Ein Alpen Symphonie tonight here in Indianapolis. Urbanski is a real up and comer among young conductors. Protege of Witt. He is very, very, good.
