Haitink/RCO Live M4 - excellent sleigh bells! (good recording & performance too)

<< < (3/3)

Yes, I like MTT's M4 too, and I think I'll revist again as its been awhile.

Regarding Boulez...I really love how the Cleveland Orchestra plays with subtle nuance...especially the strings in the 1st mov. and the solo horn in the Scherzo...Haitink's new RCO M4 also has a great horn player...but I've already said too much  ;)

Finally got around the new Haitink/RCO M4th. Considering the playing and sound, it is the best of the lot. I like Haitink's way with the score too, especially in the great Adagio where he emphasizes the timpani and a rather brisk tempo. It is probably my top favorite now. If only they didn't include the accolade at the end ???...

John,
