Deutsche-Grammaphone. Catalogue number: 459 406-2
Coupled with the adagio from 10.
I went to a performance at the Royal Albert Hall where he conducted the
Royal Phil. Pretty spectacular. The first half was given a very energetic
rendering. Pulls the tempo about all over the place. I think I still
prefer my Abbado recording. He managed to capture the ethereality of the
second half better.
