I had a recording by Nikolai Petrov on the Art & Electronics label; it's
apparently now on Russian Compact Disc(RCD).  I thought it might be
interesting but did not care for it.  The acoustic was the opposite of
"rich" and Berlioz and rich go hand in hand.  Also, one instrument can
hardly do justice to to the splendors of the work.  I found that out too
late.
