Title: Bernstein/VPO M5 from Royal Albert Hall, 1987

This is not the same performance that's on the DG recording, which was made in Frankfurt. This one sounds much more like the performance I heard in San Francisco on the same tour. To me, it sounds more wild, more unhinged, with more risks taken. See if you don't agree. I like it much better than the DG one, which I was always kind of disappointed with.
