I've been listening to Brahms' symphonic works lately and have started
to appreciate those works. The turning point came about when I heard
the Walter/CSO and Szell/CO accounts. Before these versions, I have in
my collection, Jochum/BPO, which failed to move me. I think I prefer the
broad and expansive accounts of Brahms' Symphonies by Walter/CSO and, to
a lesser extent, Szell/CO. Can anyone recommend other versions of Brahms'
symphonies that operate in the same mould?
Cheers
