Individual CDs by him are surprisingly hard to come by - maybe time for a complete DG/Decca box. -
There's also a Brilliant Classics Box that's surprisingly expensive on Amazon.Originally posted by cloughie View PostComment

I'd be very keen to read what you think of it. Tempted, but thought I'd wait for some reviews first!Originally posted by pastoralguy View PostComment

According to Europadisc the set was released back in 2009 and has since been deleted fro the catalogue, hence the price hike.Originally posted by ferneyhoughgeliebte View PostI suspect this one:

The Europakonzert 2016 from Røros, Norway DVD arrived this week, and I've just watched/listened to the BPO and Rattle give a superbly involving performance of the 'Eroica' Symphony. A slightly smaller orchestra than usual fitted onto the smallish stage (in a church, with a lot of wood, however, and a good acoustic), and the closeness to the surrounding audience, may have something to do with the total effect. The players seem to be totally in the moment and in accord with their conductor, whose gestures, on this occasion, I did not find at any point off-putting.
Warmly received by Richard Osborne in the Gramophone, too.Comment

Nevermind Richard Osborne from Gramophone, your opinion is good enough for me!Comment
