Speaking of Liszt's music, there is a non overblown, structurally sound version of the Faust Symphony generally available on various cheap, obscure labels (possibly a pirate, but I'll not ask too many questions or delve too deeply into that). It is conducted by Jascha Horenstein with Ferdinand Koch, the Southwest German Radio Choir of Stuttgart & the Southwest Radio Orchestra of Baden - Baden. Perhaps it is also a Brilliant Classics release? Geoffrey Gaskell
