I'm not buying this at all for now. Vienna 2 would be quite another matter.

This thread title possibly triggers palpitations.

Oh God, yes, ritardando whenever possible! Schindler's List theme possibilities are endless, to name just one.

When were they planning to elaborate on these online concerts that we were going to get in May?

The money pit. Happy I finished it. Hanks sounds almost unrecognisable, Long is fantastic, the sound mix and the music is great and the OST doesn't exist.

I'm not really complaining, I'm just astonished that, going through these conductor boxes, so many people seemed to insist on recording the same stuff over and over again. And even more astonished that the financial powers that be let them do it. Like, why did no one say: Listen, your 60s recording is good enough, you're not doing this anymore. Do something else. Can you imagine LLL allowing a re-print of Hook while the first version was still available just because they managed to make a violin line a bit more audible?

Why could he, though? I never understood why labels kept forking out money for stuff they already had. Plus, this one in particular just sounds bad.

No, Berlin. Vienna is later. I don't understand why he needed to re-record everything 8 times.

The Terminal, Prayer for Peace, Yorktown March, Joy Ride, the People's House...

I'm curious if his set list will differ at all. It would probably be too much to hope for more Hook, Jane Eyre, Home Alone, Schindler's List etc, but I could do without all the usual marches and stuff at this point. Give me Window to the Past and The Banquet Scene in stead.

Tchaikovsky 5, Karajan, EMI. Yet another wholly unnecessay recording. Brass flubs abound, sonics are awful. Worse than his previous DG recording, so why on earth bother?

Maybe this news will encourage DG to put Vienna 2 and Milan out soon now that they need to start butchering Berlin 2.

They're great. I've never heard Tchaikovsky's 3rd symphony played the way they did it with Jansons.

I mean, 2018 was sad and all, but the concert still ended up being pretty awesome. The only thing missing from that one is a decent recording.

I'll try and go too this time.
