Beethoven - Symphony No. 9 in d minor op. 125 ("Choral")
Richard Falvey, Nov 2000: "Probably the worst Ninth ever released, except for the
incredible Wunderlich solo. If ever 'Froh' was embodied it was here. I've had two copies of the Period
release since about 1956 or 1957, the only ones I've ever seen. Totally unknown jaw-dropping gem." [comment submitted to this website]
