Right on spot!!

Way to soft. Last time i heard it i was like OMFG when brass entered, and by NO means they were equally loud as violins here...

wagner FTMFW, the brass sounds great in this piece.

This is not a Mozart or Haydn symphony and this it shouldn't be played. All sections play well but I don't like the conductors interpretation, by all means Wagner is heavier than this. Only the trombones seem to get this and even they play some poor tied notes, putting too much emphasis on the second note. All in all Wagner should only be played by people who think about the music before rather than just playing the sheet music, performing it as a concert piece as it seemed to have happened here

Superb...on all counts!

Music like this is what made Wagner the bridge not just music but all Western art of the 20th century.

Very good, excellent representation. Bass brass are excellent, string part is very difficult but done very well.
