The best yardstick for interpreting comparisons

Carlos Kleiber has always set new standards and its very temperamet- and lively interpretation of the Beethoven symphonies must possess simply as lovers of classical music. One may argue about admirably whether the chosen tempos that actually correspond "Viennese" momentum in Kleiber interpretations to the intentions of Beethoven (there have naturally comparisons with different conductors von Karajan to Furtwängler on), but you can get the fascination and the rousing Esprit these two shots not escape in any case, if you have ears to hear and a heart to feel. This CD is a fixed star in my personal top 10 and I bet I'm not alone!
