Thank you, Andrea for having posted this. A fellow listener, henryflower found them
"...outstanding. I think it's instantly become my performance of choice for those works. So much energy and drive, such great woodwind detail..."
What am I supposed to write? There are only so many ways to express the rapt satisfaction and untrammeled serotonin production that some of these recordings cause. It's the raison d'étre for this blog.
Here Georges Prêtre, who came into this world in 1924, leads what wiki calls "one of the oldest musical institutions in the world" and together they bring the smackdown in such a way as to shame all comers.
Our contributor laments, "..[u]nfortunately the quality of sound is not excellent only 128 kbs but it is worthwhile to have it !!"
Yes, yes yes.
