    "Move over Beethoven!"

    hmm, no 50's music fans here?

    Wasn't there a movie about a dog named Beethoven?

        The irony is that Beethoven is still well-known and much beloved and much performed.

        Whomever did that song (anybody know who they were?)...well, can't say the same for them.

          Tchaikovsky.

          Another whose place in the musical pantheon is quite secure (for better or for worse).

              Actually I'd say he held up pretty well.

              It's actually "ROLL over Beethoven" by a little know artist known as Chuck Berry .

                    No other choice for a digital recording!

                    Now, in mono I have Furtwangler and the BPO--nearly half again as slow as Kleiber, but also unbeatable feeling.

                        No other choice for any recording, really. That record is one of my absolute favourites. As for digital. I do like Gardiner's 7th (as opposed to some of the others in his set) - but Kleiber reaches places other conductors don't reach.

                        Do you have the Kleiber?

                        Never heard F's seventh. I have his famous recording of No. 9 though.

                        On a lighter note: ever hear the Ashkenazy, Perlman, Harrell Archduke? That's also got a prime place in my collection.

                          I was referring to Kleiber's 7th, I meant "stereo." That was the one I was listening to at the time I posted the thread.

                          Furtwangler does Beethoven in a class all by himself. Some find it too slow, others too fast. I find it amazingly expressive.

                          Haven't heard that Archduke, but do have a pretty good recording in my collection, surprisingly enough on the inexpensive Phillips label.

                            That'd be the one: DG Originals, with the 5th. Pure Genius - along with Reiner's Bartok a Desert Island Disc.

                            Furtwangler does Beethoven in a class all by himself. Some find it too slow, others too fast. I find it amazingly expressive.
                            I often wish he could have lived a few more years. I much prefer his 9th to Toscanini's.

                            Haven't heard that Archduke, but do have a pretty good recording in my collection, surprisingly enough on the inexpensive Phillips label.
                            It's a good one. Who's on the Philips? Didn't the Beaux Arts record for them (or whoever used to own the label)?
