Beethoven - Karl Bohm Conducts Mozart & Beethoven - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

This is the second volume of Otto Klemperer's 'live' authorized broadcasts from 1955 and 1958. None has ever been published before. When comparing the conductor's studio accounts, Rob Cowan in Gramophone magazine said of the first set 'Viewed overall, what we have here is the Klemperer we already know and love, but granted wings and, trust me, you can tell the difference almost straight away'. Klemperer had a great affection for Mozart's Symphony No.25, here almost a minute faster than his 1956 account. In his booklet note, Richard Osborne describes the performance of Beethoven's Symphony No.5 from the 1958 Edinburgh Festival as Incha performance that genuinely gathers itself to greatness.Inch Klemperer's performances of the Brahms Requiem were justly famous, and this 1955 'live' account precedes his acclaimed 1961 studio recording and is almost five minutes faster. Gramophone described the latter as follows InchKlemperer's reading of this mighty work has long been famous rugged, at times surprisingly fleet with a juggernaut power.Inch In this 'live' performance with the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, Klemperer is joined by the baritone Hans Wilbrink from the Munich State Opera and the German lyric soprano Elfride Trötschel, a protégée of Karl Böhm. The Mozart and Brahms recordings have been sourced from the Lyrita Recorded Edition Trust, while the authorised BBC broadcast of Beethoven Symphony No.5 is from another collection. Album Tracks 1.
