CD Reviews

Greatest recording of greatest piece ever written

bco159-svc@email.wuerzburg.army.mil | 10/30/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I kinda liked it. Actually, this recording, particularly of the fourth movement, is unbelievable. Exciting. Inspired. People considering suicide should be forced to listen to this because it gives meaning to life. If politicians heard it they would stop their squabbling and focus on the greater good. Solti and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra clearly understood the potential of this piece and performed it masterfully. Don't listen to the Amazon butchered computer samples and don't listen to this on lousy stereo equipment. I've purchased and tried many recordings of this piece and this one is by far the best. I've bought a dozen copies for friends and for myself. I chose a stereo system solely on the basis of which would do justice to this recording."

Fantastic recording.

"Okay, true Tchaikovsky fanatics will probably tell you there are superior interpretions out there. I'm sorry, but I say Tchaikovsky, Solti and the Chicago Symphony were made for each other! A classical recording that I have not grown 'accustomed' to; it still thrills me every time. Tchaikovsky's music (in particular this recording of the 5th) is the perfect vehicle for the Chicago Symphony's majesty, and vice versa! And as for the Swan Lake suite, I defy you to find a better version out there."

Hey, you should have bought this CD YESTERDAY!!!!

"Solti and the CSO performing one of the most moving and stirring symphony ever composed! This is THE 5th! The conducting skill of Solti shines through on this recording. The deepth of tonal quality allows the listener to hear the sheer beauty of this masterpiece. After listening to this performance it will become your "measuring stick" to see if other conducters and orchestras meet the mark. And as if that was not enough, this disc includes a compelling performance of Swan Lake Suite. What a BONUS! BUY this CD, you will not regret it."
