DH hammers on Nott M9th

[BeethovensQuill]

I completely agree with John Kim here, the 1st time i listened to the Nott M9 it didnt really affect me at all, but with each listen it seems to grow to an outstanding performance of the work and i really cant go back to the Karajan anymore of which i prefered the studio to the live one.  But as we are all saying its opinions of what each persons regards their favourite performance and the Nott for me is very much the one i will listen to when i want my M9 fix.  I did also get the Gilbert of which i enjoyed the 3rd and and 4th movements, but i find much more to get into in the Nott.
