Review of Beethoven - Symphonies 1, 6, and 8 / Claudio Abbado, Berlin Philharmonic (2001)

Beethoven - Symphonies 1, 6, and 8 / Claudio Abbado, Berlin PhilharmonicThese interpretations are a solid balace of Romanticism and modern aesthetics concerning Beethoven.One measure of my Beethoven (if you'll forgive the personal reference) is whether or not in the 6th the flute is free and flying or muffled amid chaos.The BPO balance it beautifully.This is Beethoven at its best; however...

I am working on getting my 3rd DVD of this, the result of skips and stops that appear no matter if their played on PC or DVD player.Amazon has indicated that others are experiencing the same problem, so I would advise that this not be purchased from a source that would hesitate to offer a refund/exchange.
