Negative Positive
Title: Musical document of extraordinary relevance!
Review: After Munch's retirement, the presence on the stage of Leinsdorf, the presence of the young promise by then _Michael Tilson Thomas, and the brief collaboration between Steinberg as musical and guest conductor respectively, one can feel and still perceive the sound of the B.S.O. by then, is pitifully missed.The presence of soloists of the artistic level such as Dorothy Anthony Dwyer, Silverstein or Erskin, the lyric flow, nuance, elegance and refined splendor of this memorable ensemble has no parallel. On the other hand , Andrei Bushilow made the same in the late sixties as musical leader of the Philadelphians.Listen Debussy's Violin sonata or Cello sonata, the fabulous transcription of Prelude and you will understand how this approach simply dissapeared in these times.Recordings of first-order relevance that -under the light of four decades- merely confirm something missed under the bridge.
