[@AndrewGorny]

those horns must have been LOUD. They've overpowering the entire staccato section!!!

[@TheVrajr]

For years, Charles Rex sat at the first stand next to Dichterow. Nowadays he sits at the back of the section. Anyone know why that happened?

[@hellogoodbye880]

@Lalumia4 One of my favorite part is when the trombone get loud !!!!!

[@sireofzelda]

should have recognized Zubin Mehta but I didn't.. Can't believe it.

[@montano336]

Pull headphones 1 mm out of the jack for stereo...

[@hellogoodbye880]

@Wanderley257 In english please

[@grizzlyganymede]

If you want a really great version, try to hear Klemperer/Philharmonia Orch, recorded 1972 on EMI. Great balance, dynamics and acoustics, perfectly paced crescendi. Like to wind this up on Big Stereo - when neighbours are away

[@javiermarting]

I never think about Mehta as a wagnerian conductor... but lol, this rendition is splendid! He's probably the conductor that more surprises me, capable of mediocre and brilliant readings as well. Thanks for sharing.

[@Schlipssammler]

Man darf es durchaus so formulieren.

[@Armando1735]

Humano, apenas humano

[@pbgrafx]

I love 'What's Opera, Doc?" That was a wonderful culmination of Wagner's music and the reason why I later wanted to learn more about Wagner.

[@Wanderley257]

Excelente performace da NY Phillharmonic e Zubin mehta. Se o som da gravação fosse um pouco mais alto, seria ótimo.

[@vonTresckow]

Karajan ist eine Zumutung?!

[@Adirondaque]

Wow.

[@ApolyonTheSoulRender]

Bravo trombones! : )

[@dschonsie]

5:03.........wondering why toni soprano plays wagner instead of italian opera ^^

[@BLscc94]

That low brass section was it! The present one is not too shabby, either.

[@ilmaestro18]

Wait... don't they usually start off the season by playing the National Anthem?

[@hellogoodbye880]

@ApronHillboy2 lol !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ConnArtistTrombonist]

trombones ftw

[@malgray2]

Shame the recording is all on one stereo channel.

[@loudonc123]

[@LeRinkRat]

@Quadroc Solti mit Chicago Oder Wien mehr besser ist
