There was certainly a different sound from this ensemble. The sonorities were wonderfully clear. The horns in the first suite sound wonderful. Speeds are brisk but not hurried.
It is a good one Dave....definitely worth a punt!

Sibelius – Symphonies Nos. 4 & 5 played by the Berlin Symphony Orchestra/Sanderling....
No. 4 is a version that is a beautiful mix of restraint and an outpouring of expression; it is a deeply felt performance.
No.5 was yet another powerful performance with excellent playing and great sound quality.

Shostakovich: 24 Preludes and Fugues. Jenny Lin, Hänssler Classic
Delightfully cheeky, Bachian and weird! I have Alexander Melnikov's new record of the same work on the way: should be an interesting comparison!
See her playing Shostakovich on YouTube!
