@dedissimo I don't find it that fast, actually I find Solti or Karajan faster ( at least in the crescendo, maybe the soloist is faster with Furtwangler?). Somewhere Furtwangler is a lot slower ( as he's about 9 minutes longer than Karajan)

What i like o Furtwangler's rendition is the crescendo ( risisng sound ) of the cymbals at the end of the first part.

I agree with ClaudeFrollon, I find it a bit fast. I'd prefer it slower, but it's still wonderful.

the closest to a God.

thank you for posting..
such immediacy and ferocity...sounds as if some folks are playing/singing for their very lives, and as though others are playing/singing as if their friends and sister/brother musicians might be playing/singing for their lives....
this is what great classical music sounds like in extreme, lung-bursting, string-fraying expression....

check out Beethoven's metronome mark- dotted half = 84. (one full bar = 84bpm). this tempo is very pleasant in comparison. however the speed does fit in with the vicious interpretation of the fugato section, IMHO.
