Riveting historic performance-NYP live in the 50's

A. C. Buswell | Houston , TX | 04/25/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this just to hear two of my teachers in their heyday - William Vacchiano and John Ware. Although the tempos are pretty crazy(at least to my Bernstein,Solti conditioned ears), I was inspired by the ferocity of the playing. These guys were monsters - Vacchiano(1st trumpet) , Johnny Ware(posthorn solo),Gordon Pulis (trombone),James Chambers (1st horn) - this recording is such an enjoyment. These guys are legends and this demonstrates how they got that status. The only reason I give it 4 stars, is that not everyone is a brass fiend and the overall performance is more a testament to the virtuousity of the NYP at that time, rather than a definitive interpretation. The section work in the brass is killer! Whoever said they were a "woodwind" orchestra has some explaining to do."
