5 out of 5 stars Forgotten Recording, but one of the Best Daphnis and Chloe's.......2005-05-26

When I first heard this recording, I was in shock! Knowing all of Schwarz's recordings of Diamond, Piston, and Schuman, hearing him in standard repertoire was very suprising! Schwarz's orchestra has wonderful control, clarity, and persistence. Most unbelievable is the end-faster than everyone else I have heard (including Dutoit) and very exciting! The langourous moments are not given short shrift-the orchestra plays luxuriously. The Diamond elegy provides a nice makeweight. But this recording has to be heard to be belived! Don't pass this recording by if you see it! You will be amazed!
