Title: A Superior "Messiah"
Review: This is a fine performance that is well worth having; Scherchen was a very interesting conductor. However, I agree with Mr. Sherman that it is not as good as the original 1954 mono recording of the "Dublin" version. I bought both the '54 and '57 recordings when they came out, and have other recordings of "Messiah". The 1954 Scherchen recording is the one I go back to. The sound quality is still wonderful. With mono like that I don't need stereo, just as with the early '50s Mercury Olympian Series recordings. Someone should certainly reissue it. It has historic as well as artistic value.
