Dohnányi M9

sbugala:
When the recording first came out, I acquired it right away and disliked it. It seemed like it was a sound issue: too clinical, not enough impact. I traded it in. I gave it a chance a few years later. Similar feelings.

Then...last year, I happened to pick it up again...and I liked it. I didn't find it lacking in any way. The sound was fine in my car audio system. It's good. It might have been a poor match with the home audio system that I had; but it's just fine to me now.

John Kim:
I quite like it. For one thing, no other orchestra played the symphony better. I also heard a live Dohnanyi/CLVO M9th which was faster and more intense than the one on CD.
