While it is good to see three excellent musicians play this piece, I do much prefer the 1968 version by Barry Tuckwell, Itzhak Perlman and Vladimir Ashkenazy, which goes with real pace and excitement.
Clevenger is technically flawlless but I find his playing too restrained. Compare this recording with Javier Bonet's on the natural horn and a huge difference in energy and excitement will be noticed.
i agree fatarae. Great piece, but I'm not srue this is the best interpretation. Perlan is too light, he needs to be a bit heaver to blend with the horn. And he, and esepcially barenboim, cover up clevenger. I think the producers over compensated for the normal issue (the horn covering the violin).
Barenboim: "I don't need any page turners, I got this guys."

This is a very odd performance--not only slow, but bulbous and overweight.
Unlike @fatarae--I'm SURE I don't like this!

I saw the three of them do this live in Los Angeles. It was very exciting.

Brahms music is unecessary, or at least his 99%
