I enjoy their energy. Telefunken did a good job recording them. I have not heard their EMI recordings. I have the older analog recordings from Telefunken.

I believe I have the Complete Martinu Symphonies with Neumann in some pile on the floor , I'll give them a try again when My one-a-day Tchaikovsky Adventure is over!

Listened to this Schubert tonight. Christian Gerhaher is one of my favorite voices among current artists.

I just listed this in another thread as one of my two favorite Christmas recordings, and I am also now listening to . . .
A Proprius LP, recorded in 1976 in the Oscars Church, Stockholm Cantate Domino Oscars Motettkör (Oscars Motet Choir) - Torsten Nilsson, Director Oscar Church Organ - Alf Linder, Organist This is not only the finest choral Christmas recording I've ever heard, but is also one of the best choral recordings period! It has been said many times that this is probably the best coral/choir/organ recording ever made. A true audiophile classic and a real treasure. Not typical Christmas carols and mostly not music normally associated with Christmas, sung in Swedish, so it is suitable for year-round listening by anyyone, whether religiously oriented or not. Available in a variety of hi-res formats from Amazon, Acoustic Sounds, and other sources. I have several copies of the LP and haven't tried the CD, SACD, or K2HD Master versions, which have each received high praise. This is a gorgeous recording and should be in everyone's collections as a "best of" and as a demonstration disc.

Julian, a small spell check of Your Swedish: Motet choir is actually spelled "Motettkör"... I guess that Swedish is not a language that is often spoken or written down there in Dixie! /ptr
