Bohm,Karl / Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra Mozart: Syms 32 35 Haffner 36 Linz & 38 Prague CD

These from his landmark complete cycle... all well received and I enjoyed hearing them again. B?hm is as excellent a Mozart conductor as Karajan, playing the quick movements in the most lively manner... Haffner is enjoyable, with a faster tempo in the finale, and plenty of momentum to the first movement. K318 has a vital and dramatic performance, The Linz minuet and finale both have sturdy, solid playing; a powerful performance... B?hm is really in his element with the Prague: the first movement is magnificent, superbly played, superbly architected. (Overall)... he shows an exceptional ability to bring subtle emphasis to the felicities of the writing... - (Gramophone).
