Sibelius: Symphony #5 in Eb Major, Op. 82 - III Allegro molto

[AIPThePharaoh]

interesting...

[Klemperer]

Thanks for uploading! Another highly interesting recording. Rozhdestvensky treats the brass quite differently to recordings I own. Listening to this two times in a row is wonderful - one thinks "another outstanding Sibelius". The maybe most "modern"version I ever heard, such a great rhythm...

@Klemperer That is why I adore Rozhdestvensky, his totally modern vision. Get used to the recordings I, and a significant minority of "classical" fans, own! I will never intentionally upload anything that has already been uploaded, but superb recordings from Soviet or Warpac ensembles.

@pastrychef1985 That is a great idea. I owned some older recordings with Rozhdestvensky, Bruckner 9 for example, about 5 or 6, but they were destroyed in a fire in our flat in Hamburg (grrrr). There are truly outstanding soviet recordings, the musicality is unbelievable.
