Sibelius Symphony No. 5 & Karelia Suite - Gibson London Symphony Orchestra

Good sonics

I didn’t know this recording. The sonics are very good. The interpretation is only correct.

Sibelius Symphony No. 5 & Karelia Suite - Gibson London Symphony Orchestra

beautiful interpretation and the sound is superbly restored

Excellent, great sonics

A class release in many ways. There are very many Sibelius 5's - and Karelia Suites - out there. This one is rather cool in performance but also vivid and propulsive. The Wilkie/Kingsway/Decca sound is special - crystal clear, transparent, with beautiful staging and openness. The only issue here is the somewhat sat-on dynamics.
