Bruckner - Symphony No.5 (Franz Welser-Most, The London Philharmonic, EMI)

Yes Jared, it is important to always bear that in mind.
now this set is rather good:
recorded on the now defunct Denon label 20 years ago by a conductorless 12 strong ensemble 'I Solistri Italiani', who play on modern instruments, but there is a joyous lightness of touch and bouyancy required for these works... a 99p bargain, and quite satisfying.
