I cannot comment on Baremboim's performance Jared as I have not heard it but you are certainly onto a winner there with the musical content that is for sure! You should have lots of happy customers with a pleasant chap like you looking after them and Mozart filling the air!!!

Very fine playing all around and I was quite taken with the Orchestral Suite No. 4 on the disc.

The touch was light alright but perhaps not as much as the Goodman and Hanover Band version. I couldnt really fault the performance in any way.
