Thx Corno.Kurt Masur,New York Philharmonic and Sergei Leiferkus.This is one of the top three performances i heard of this symphony with the others being;Jansons & BRSO & Aleksashkin and Temirkanov & St Petersburg Philharmonic & Aleksashkin.Sarcasm,range and demonic feeling Leiferkus has in his voice is just superb and very suitable to this work.

 

[Kromme]

Dvorak and Schumann cello concertos.Jacqueline du Pre soloist,Daniel Barenboim conducting Chicago Symphony and New Philharmonia Orchestras respectively.Very emotional playing,spontaneous readings by du Pre.A shame she had a tragically brief career.
