What a face Reiner had. Eeeck!!!

@davidc5191 I did too!

@kjdaugirdas Toscanini's 1936 recording of Beethoven's Seventh is the one that supposedly "sets the standard."
However, I would suggest Reiner's 1954 recording of Beethoven's Third; it is truly sublime.
You can read my review of it on "Amazon."

Reiner's beat is crystal clear and remember these musicians had years to see it and understand his style.
This is not NOT metronomic conducting. Although he shows little emotion, his internal clock makes subtle but noticeable tempo changes throughout.
Still, as a member of the orchestra, I don't know if I could have watched his scowl day in and out. But the results were fabulous.
