Krips interpretations were always warm and lyrical rather than dramatic and forceful. Krips feelings about it. As I have pointed out in other reviews, the latest issues are made in America . Previous discs were made in Germany and were dry and thin sounding. Whatever has been changed, the music now is fuller and warmer, while more detailed at the same time.
Stings have a rich sound, with feathery detail where needed.
I hope that Decca will continue to issue these wonderful recordings. They reflect the best in CD sound and give us interpretations which are from a time when giants did walk the earth. We used to have conductors, now we mainly hear directors.
