From the Zinman and Tonhalle Orchestra Great Symphonies box set:
Richard Strauss
Eine Alpinesinfoine
Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich
David Zinman conducting.
This is a very enjoyable performance of the Strauss Alpine Symphony, the Tonhalle are certainly up to the demands of this piece. That said the HvK BPO recording is still the best in my collection.
