Christoph von Dohnanyi and the VPO is highly recommended--it is one of
my favorite recordings of all (partly because it took me such a long time
to get a hold of it.) The playing is powerful and beautiful at the same
time, qualities that I find less in the Masur version.  The Calm Sea and
Prosperous Voyage overture and the Hebrides that go along are equally
majestic and solid.  Recorded sound is very fresh.
