Bychkov/Chicago S.O./B. Fink (contralto) M3 broadcast

[barry guerrero]

I'm listening to this now. Sounds really good. Fink sounds great (she's on the Jansons/RCOA M3). I very much like Bychkov's Cologne recording of M3, even though it's a tad on the slow side (Avie). I saw him give a terrific M6 with the Vienna Phil. in Berkeley. In the dress rehearsal, he changed the movement order from Andante/Scherzo to S/A (good for him!). I'm hoping we'll eventually get Bychkov in S.F.
