SYMPHONY NO. 5 (VINYL) IN C MI

The Beethoven experience is rarely as direct as it is here; even in basically similar interpretative approaches from Scherchen and Leibowitz to Harnoncourt and Gardinet, there usually remains a certain distance from the listener based on reverence that Raiski's ensemble seems to bridge: one's feels spoken to directly. - Incredible that such a significant contribution to the Beethoven discography was also produced in marvelous, puristic analogue and/or tube quality. To be collected! (vinyl catalog. De)
