    Wunderschöne und detaillierte Interpretation dieser einzigartigen doch perfekt komponierten Variationen mit farbenreichen doch perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der intelligente und erfahrene Maestro dirigiert das ausgezeichnete Kammerorchester im gut analysierten Tempo und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Dieses Meisterwerk soll außer Großbritannien viel häufiger aufgeführt und viel höher geschätzt werden. Wunderbar vom Anfang bis zum Ende!

    EMI made a remarkable series of Britten recordings in the early 80s, I suppose in someway to counter Decca's almost monopoly of the market with their (mainly) composer-conducted series.
    I have both Decca and EMI versions, and in some works tend to prefer the latter - although conventional wisdom says the Deccas are definitive!
    Apart from the above, Rattle/CBSO in Sinfonia da Requiem (EL 27 02631) are magnificent in spectacular sound in Warwick Univ. Arts Centre (eng. Michael Sheady). Elisabeth Söderström/Armstrong/WNO in Our Hunting Fathers (ASD 4397)). Rattle/CBSO Young Apollo, Canadian carnival, etc. Neville Marriner/Minnesota in YPG, P Grimes 4 Sea Ints, and the premiere of Men of Goodwill.
    Not sure if you've explored any (or all!) of the above, but particularly the Sinfonia da Requiem I'd highly recommend.

      I don't know all of the recordings you mention, but I have soft spot for the GDR Eterna label's Sinfonia da Requiem with Kempe and the Dresden orchestra ruclips.net/video/oUrmIjSk7YU/видео.html You're right about Decca's Britten recordings being considered definitive though!

      ​@@ClassicsAndVinylThanks for the link for the Kempe, I've never heard it!
      If you don't have the Rattle Sinfonia da Requiem, beg, borrow or steal a copy of the vinyl of the German pressed DMM version (EL 27 0263 1), it is a sonic delight! The opening has tremendous impact with its bass drum well caught...and the side drum beautifully 'crisp' in the Dies irae.

      ​@@ClassicsAndVinylEr. Don't want to hark-on about it, but if you did want a copy of the Rattle/CBSO, there is a brand new copy on eBay being sold by niwi-2291 £7.50 +p and p. In fact I know who this is....he is my ex business partner in our British music mail order enterprise. This would be a copy that hasn't been played, as he didn't care for Britten!
