I've always enjoyed the Ansermet/Suisse Romande performance, and the sonics of the DSD128 incarnation are superb. As you indicated, the tape from which it was derived appears pristine, and the soundstage is about as walk-into-it-and-roam-around as you can get. A real tribute to the Decca tree and the engineer (Roy Wallace) who knew how to utilize it.
(For reference, listened to on a system consisting of a Win 10 laptop/JRiver Media Center 21, TEAC UD-501 DAC, Counterpoint SA2000 line stage, c-j Sonographe SA250, and Paradigm Studio 20 v.5's.)

In any case, last night's outing was Ehnes' Prokofiev Violin Concerti from Chandos in 2 channel. A bit of a let-down that orchestra simply floats in no-man's land; no aural perspective. That said, sound blessedly non-clinical.
Will definitely spring for HDTT's Decca Rossini with Gamba and the Brahms Curzon PC #1, both fabulous recordings and performances.
