CD Reviews

Excellent personal view of Nielsen

01/06/2004

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This set contains several great recordings: the 3rd is among the best I've heard, with the Pastorale movement of that symphony clearly the best ever. The 5th is excellent, if not ultimately quite as dramatic as the best; the 4th is also excellent. The 1st, a favorite of mine, is let down slightly by somehwat sluggish tempos. But overall, it's an excellent set, and if at all possible, buy it for the 3rd, or buy the 3rd separately."
