Awful Recording!, September 24, 2008
This review is from: Holst: The Planets; Mathews: Pluto (Audio CD)
Since there were no comments on Amazon I unfortunately found a wrongly favorable review on an audiophile discs website. After listening to this I surprisingly found it to be a murky recording with no detail. So frustrated, I retrieved from my throwaway bin my 18 year old Levine conducts the Chicago Symphony Orchestra CD previously thinking this SACD would blow it away. Boy, was I wrong: My 18 year old CD stomps this SACD badly with a much better recording and even much better playing (see my review). So don't waste your time with this disappointing SACD and get the much superior Levine/Chicago Symphony Orchestra CD on Deutsche Grammophon label.
