I really like the sound of the Grieg Karajan. I’m a sucker for the sound they got at Jesus Christus Kirche, and in this remaster one really hears the sound HvK wanted from the orchestra. Being Norwegian it’s music I grew up with and I’ve been thinking that I’ve heard it too many times, but this purchase is worth every krone.
Regrettably some ticks on the Chopin Pollini side 1. Apart from that fantastic music making and sound, and an error on the jacket decor that may point to more Chopin Pollini in the future.
In the Feb 2025 batch I’ve decided for the Mahler 6 Karajan which will be my first from eight track master in the series and also the first recording done in Circus Karajani, the Abbado Scriabin/Tchaikovsky, and possibly also the Tchaikovsky 1 because it’s a great recording. I’m just a little bit unsure about the music. The Mozart is not the way I like to hear K. 626 played. Too old fashioned stately.
