5.0 out of 5 stars The Radio Berlin version of Gorecki's 3rd Symphony, August 8, 2008

By	David Burger - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I believe I have heard every recording of Gorecki's 3rd Symphony. To my ears and heart, the Radio Berlin version with soloist Stefania Woytovicz is the most moving. This is a great performance of one of the greatest pieces of the 20th Century.
