Title: up to the standards of Telarc's Zander series
Review: As usual the most interesting feature of this recording is the bonus commentary CD, which is devoted mostly to observance of tempi. I found the Maestro's observations quite persuasive, but found the singing and vocalizing a bit distracting. The actual performances have something in common with Carlos Kleiber's famous CD of these works - and ironically Maestro Zander considered him at the time this CD was released to be the greatest living conductor. For those not expecting the 5th to be played quickly, at times very quickly, this may seem overaggressive, but it follows the composer's wishes. The last movement of the 7th is taken slower than many other performances - again as marked - and I find the music's structure is heard to better effect as a result, without loss of excitement. The sound quality, orchestral playing and documentation are all well done.
