John Wiser responds, also winging it:

I am equally sure that there is only one Bernstein-led recording of the
"Sinfonia Espansiva" of Carl Nielsen, that it is with the Royal Danish
Orchestra, and has been reissued on the Sony label from CBS materials.
So much for [perceived] fact.  Now an opinion:  Bernstein's Nielsen
recordings, to my taste, are always overwrought and lacking in attention
to detail.  I'll take the first-generation Nielsen conductors every time;
they _never_ let podium histrionics and sheer nervous energy override
temporal control.
