In Reply to: With works with so many recordings, there just can't be a "best" posted by Chris from Lafayette on August 2, 2017 at 12:19:33:
This set has excellent sound on SACD, despite being recorded in the dry Barbican. The performances are lively, not stolid (as some people expect from Haitink), and beautifully played.
I can't say it's the "best" because there are so many good recordings--e.g., I like Toscanini/BBC, but it's from ~1939 and some people won't be able to tolerate the antique sound.
