JMCXR-0021 - "Pathetique" Symphony No. 6 in B Minor, Op.74 Fritz Reiner/Chicago Symphony
"This is a definitive performance and recording, one that makes others seem maudlin, flat and pallid" - The Inner Ear Report

Frtiz Reiner and the CSO are in superb form on this session recorded by the famed production team of Layton and Mohr on March 12, 1962. The symphony, otherwise known as the "Pathetique", is a tour-de-force of emotional contrast. Dark moods and high spirited passion prevail in this legendary performance of Tchaikovsky's last masterpiece. The sound quality is spectacular, even by Mohr and Layton's lofty standards. Hear the "Pathetique" as never before on XRCD2!
