Continuing my Tchaikovsky theme with this well measured and unsentimental version of Tchaikovsky's sixth....
....it really is a very strong performance and Kletzki has become a sought out conductor for me over recent years.

I have a copy of Haitink's recordings of the Fifth and Tenth and they are very good indeed.fergus wrote:Finishing tonight with Shostakovich 15....

<Lovely music.>
To say the least, Opera was never the same after Orfeo, which became the model for Viennese Classicism, gorgeous in it´s simplicity.
The Jacobs recording is my favourite version. Bernarda Fink sings magnificently, the Freiburgers play like gods and René Jacobs bathes the whole thing with his luminous knowledge.
