In my humble opinion this shows that RVW is now owned by the world rather than than being claimed by provincial Britain. A great orchestra, and a great conductor make as much sense of English music as Boult or Barbirolli did in their time, and let's face it, the modern Oslo Philharmonic is simply better than any London orchestra of the twentieth century.
To me this as gratifying as seeing the Warsaw Phil play Elgar well!
It will be grand when we can actually hear this kind of thing again in the concert hall rather than in replay.
Please enjoy.
Best wishes from George
PS: Though JS Bach and FJ Haydn are my favourite composers, I listen to a much wider range than those great composers. Great music is great music and does not need to be compared. Great is great. A class beyond comparison.
