Monteux Edition Reappears!.......2003-12-18
Amazon must have cleaned out their storage closets recently because dozens of previously out-of-print classical CDs have been popping up all over the place as new and available. Take this classic volume from BMG's "Pierre Monteux Edition." This 15 volume series has been out of print for several years now, and some of the titles are becoming increasingly hard to find. A few weeks ago I was delighted to find this CD, Volume 3 featuring Brahms' 2nd Symphony and Song of Destiny (sung in English with the Stanford University Chorus), and Mahler's Kindertotenlieder (with Marian Anderson), as it was one of the titles I still needed from the original series. The performances (from 1945, '49 & '50 respectively) are recorded in good mono with the San Francisco Symphony, but my reason for withholding a fifth star is they just don't sound as good as Monteux's legendary stereo accounts with Boston -- like the Tchaikovsky Symphonies on Volume 14. However, if you are a Monteux devotee and you missed this disc the first time around like I did, snap it up before it vanishes again!
