Brahms: Symphonies Nos 4 & 2 Boston Symphony Orchestra, Charles Munch [ Sony Classical Originals / CD - released 10/Apr/2011 ] "Brisk tempos, wicked string and woodwind attacks keep this affectionate version on its toes.

Symphonies Nos. 5 & 7 New York Philharmonic, Leonard Bernstein [ Sony Originals / CD - released 10/Apr/2011 ] "All told, a highly successful performance, typical of the conductor in its expressive power and dynamism, but completely free of his less admirable mannerisms."
