Title: A new view of Brahms
Review: These recordings are revelatory. Berglund has clarified the textures of the symphonies so details previously hidden come out. Horn and woodwind parts that in other hands have been somewhat lost in the mix sing out. The structure of these symphonies is revealed in new ways and new interconnections have been laid out. I LOVE THESE! My only objection is that the first two discs are skimpy, about 44 minutes each. I know that this is a 3 disc set for the price of two, but couldn't the Overtures or the "Haydn" variations fill out each disc? Small matter. Buy these, they are TERRIFIC!
