Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely, convincingly REAL   September 16, 2008
RECORDING QUALITY: Amazingly good, considering the age of the recording. To be frank, it sounds better than the much more recent recordings that I have. Since I'm using Quad electrostatics, I'd expect any flaws in the recording to shine through. There are no flaws.
INTERPRETATION: Unique. Listen to this with a full score in front of you and you soon realise that everything is there, in its place, with professional precision, and yet THE ENERGY! There are a number of good performances on the market and I thought that I'd heard the best of them, including various other five star rated issues. They don't touch this one, not by a long way. This performance made me SHIVVER. It almost frightened me. It made my spine tingle. As for the final dance, it is the only rendition I have ever heard in which I could genuinely believe that a poor lass was being forced to dance herself to death. It left me gasping for breath and I was only LISTENING to it, not dancing it!
WHAT ABOUT THE COMPETITION? I won't comment on the competition. I have most of the recordings available and I simply don't listen to them any more.



5 out of 5 stars the best!   June 16, 2008
I completely agree with the review above. A remarkable recording and one of my favourates. Ozawa has pulled it off with staggering precsision and pace without loosing any of the chaos and rawness, and with the bmg hp remastering (originally recorded 1968) it sounds fresher than most modern recordings.


5 out of 5 stars The Best Rite   June 2, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I have 8 renditions of Stravisnky's Rite in total and now I can finish my search: I've found one I am completely happy with. It has the seething raw energy that the piece deserves and delivers it in a more controlled manner (in my opinion) than Bernstein's celebrated 1958 recording. Brilliant exhilarating stuff.
