I've always been very happy with Karajan's 60 cycle, but I've also long been meaning to check out the Gardiner, since I keep hearing great things about it. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bollemanneke 3,348 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I think Karajan's 70s cycle is superior on so many levels than his earlier and later recordings. The first one sounds bad and the third one sounds like 'Yeah, okay, we have to make a digital recording, let's just do it already.' The 70s portions I know all sound so intense and joyful.

Jurassic Shark 12,075 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I don't like the Gardiner cycle that much. Although the speeds are swift, much of the tension in the music is lost. 33 minutes ago, bollemanneke said: I think Karajan's 70s cycle is superior on so many levels than his earlier and later recordings. The first one sounds bad and the third one sounds like 'Yeah, okay, we have to make a digital recording, let's just do it already.' The 70s portions I know all sound so intense and joyful. There's four cycles: 50s on EMI. Sound not so good. 60s on DG: sound is good. As for the performances, I prefer Cluyten's slightly earlier recordings (but still stereo) with the same orchestra. 70s on DG: sounds good, but the choir sounds notoriously diffuse. 80s on DG: digital.

bollemanneke 3,348 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Right, but compare s7m4. On the 70s they love what they're doing, not on any other. Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,193 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 The 60s sounds awesome! It has a full-bodied bass that many of Karajan's other recordings (including his Ring cycle from the same time) don't have. That other more expansive sound is great for Wagner, Strauss, Bruckner, & Co., but I think it's a perfect fit for the Beethovens. Those wonderfully droning double basses in the finale of the 8th! Many of Karajan's 80s recordings don't live up to his 60s and 70s versions. Partly because he didn't take the lively stuff lively enough anymore, and partly because the early digital recordings just sound much flatter. An exception are his Berlin Planets (because I still think the Wiener just didn't bother when he did it with them in the 60s). His 80s Alpensinfonie is fine, but I really wish he'd also recorded that work with his earlier 70s Strauss cycle, because everything else in there is superiour to the digital remakes. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
