Review title: Stunning Symphonie Fantastique
Product review: Of all the performances of Berlioz's visionary symphony that I've heard (all of Davis's, Chung, Gardiner, and others) this one is my favorite. It boasts tempi markedly faster than most versions, and with the amazing agility of the Detroit Symphony, the result is pure exhilaration. As with most Mercury Living Presence discs, the recorded sound is up close and personal--there is a certain loss of ambience, but with a performance this hot one doesn't mind being in the front row! Paray's grip of this work is so compelling it doesn't let up for a moment--by the end one is both amazed and exhausted. The overtures and marches are also performed with tremendous gusto. A spectacular achievement.
