This review is from: Koussevitzky conducts Prokofiev (Audio CD)

Please listen this performing of the Classical Symphony and try just intend to breathe . After you listen that incandescent version ; be true with me and yourself and say it out loud Will you be able to get another flammiferous and diamantine version in the rest of our lives ?
Be honest and convince by yourself . The Boston Symphony was in one of their most inspired days and made the hitherto recording of this work .
Bravo maestro!.
