Review title: Wolfie Would Have Approved
Product review: Having grown up listening to records (yeah, those big black groovy things) and cassettes of Mozart's later symphonies, I was hoping to find the best CD of those symphonies, and I think this is the one. Frankly, I don't care for period instruments (they may be "authentic," but my ears prefer inauthentic), and I think the Berlin Philharmonic does justice to these exquisite pieces. The G Minor Symphony, No 40, is one of the great symphonies of all time, but I've always thought the slow 2nd movement does drag on a bit too long (12 minutes on some recordings), but here the tempo is bumped up enough that it runs less than 8 minutes, so the movement doesn't become tedious. I think the 3rd movement, menuetto, from Symphony 39 is the best I ever heard. I've heard the recordings of 40 and 41 by Bernstein and the Vienna Philharmonic, and they are decent, but this set is hard to beat.
