I also don't like his interpretation, because the mix isn't to my taste, but it's not lifeless, it's aggressive. Yesterday I would listen to "Also sprach Zarathustra" ( Richard Strauss) in the television, but the version from Herbert von Karajan and the human Philharmoniker's make it sound lifeless. I couldn't stand it. I don't say they are bad, but we had too much of that old school style. IMO there isn't the need for another orchestra recording of Mozart's Symphony #40, there are enough recordings. Playing it life is something else, but for a new recording I prefer an industrial version as Patrick's, assumed it's mixed more to my taste. Please, more contemporary music and with respect to the roots, more contemporary interpretations of compositions as Mozart's Symphony #40 and less cultural heritage preservation. ;) _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
