Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Stokowski's live Beethoven's 9th comes 2nd after studio rec.......1998-09-24

This is a great performance taken from a live concert within days of Stokowski's studio recording of the 9th symphony. The studio recording is available on Decca/London. This recording would be essential if that studio recording had not been made. However, the studio recording is much better recorded, slightly broader in tempo and just as great a performance. Thus I would recomend this for those particularly interested in live Stokowski or those like myself who like to compare live and studio recordings of the same piece/same conductor.
