"This is one of the most beautiful and intense versions available, starting with a highly compelling account of the first movement which brings biting funeral-march rhythms. Karajan's characteristic emphasis on polish and refinement goes with sharpness of focus. This is a performance of statue and, with excellent sound, a genuine bargain." (Penguin Guide)
