In Reply to: Yup - I like the recordings of Mrs. Simon Rattle too, although. . . posted by Chris from Lafayette on March 13, 2017 at 20:26:59:
Andre Previn went for a younger violinist and others fell for instrumentalists (Dutoit>Argerich etc) but there's an avalanche of opera singers in the safe arms of conductors.
Richard Strauss, Simon Rattle, Zubin Mehta, Paul Daniel, Leonardo Vordoni (Joyce DiDonato), Sakari Oramo, Andris Nelsons, Karel Chichon (Elina Garanca) Mozart, Prokofiev......
The list is probably endless.....
