It's the first recording I've heard to rival the 1962 Jochum -- all the others seem to be something less than satisfying, especially when it comes to the tenor part (to wit: James King's squawking on the otherwise sumptuous Haitink LP, and Rene Kollo's insensitive shouting on Karajan's version). Unfortunately I can't remember the names of Giulini's soloists, but he uses the Berlin Philharmonic, and the recording is digital. Anybody have the new Maazel 2nd? I hear it's great ...
