George Szell conducted the Cleveland Orchestra in wonderful performances of Don Juan, Till Eulenspiegel, and Death & Transfiguration. The 24/96 FLAC copy I purchased sounds outstanding- both clear & powerful. Recommended.
HDTT was really generous with this issue; Strauss' three most popular tone poems were offered, none of them is a "filler". The Clevelanders under Szell give vivid, convincing performances. So it should be a "Five-star" issue. What one really misses is the straight presence of acoustic experience, the final stamp of pleasure provided by the sound-stage. The recording shows a digital tinge.
