I will just note that to me watching Carlos Kleiber conducting is a pleasure that can be only compared with eating of the skin of a freshly roosted duck. When you have time then to do YouTube or elsewhere and search for Carlos Kleiber rehearsals. You will learn how your playback shall sound much more then after 500 years of Stereophile reading… Rgs, Romy the Cat "I wish I could score everything for horns." - Richard Wagner.
