The Best Schubert Ninth
Ralph J. Steinberg | New York, NY United States | 01/15/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"For decades, I treasured the DG recording of Furtwaengler's Schubert Ninth, but this Opus Kura issue of the live 1942 performance surpasses it in impulse, strength, and grave eloquence. Especially the Andante is revealed as a militant, forceful and ultimately tragic movement; the orchestral unisons are frightening in their grim power. Soundwise, this is again a triumph for Opus Kura. This is the essential Schubert Ninth. The Brahms Haydn Variations are likewise eloquent and spellbinding."
