I love Furtwangler passionately, but to my ears Weingartner is even finer in Brahms (Furtwangler is a little too eager to always be dramatic and pulls some passages out of their proper shape). But in this symphony, I think even Weingartner has to take a back seat to Bruno Walter.
This is my introduction to Weingartner and his marvelous interpretation of the 3rd. To think that he very likely heard Brahms himself conduct this work! The 70-year-old recording has remarkable frequency and dynamic response. Very listenable indeed.
@CarlosFinch That is the truth.... This is the real Brahms!!! You are right....and I am wondering, why now, some conductors wont to create some "new Brahms"....
probablement le passage le plus intense de toute les symphonies de Brahms.
mon favori en tout cas.

Felix Weitgartner was a great conductor. Obviously, those who enjoy Brahms' music owe to themselves to hear Furtwangler's renditions too.

Furtwangler's interpretations for Brahms is full of power and energy as his Beethoven version. I guess Beethoven couldn't leave his mind!!
