No Binayak, I'm not familiar with the Mengelberg 5th, but I think I found my definite recordings in the Gergievs, whose interpretation of the 6th is a lot alike the one Furtwangler recorded in Cairo 1951. The only thing I like in Mengelberg's recording is the romanticism and of course the great playing of the orchestra, but Gergiev really made me hear some similarities between 'Tristan und Isolde' in the last movement of the 6th and perhaps that's my trigger:-)As you probably know I'm a sucker for Mravinsky when Shostakovich is concerned and although Gergiev's recording of Shostakovich 8 is very good, it just can't compete with Yevgeny's recordings.
