Beethoven conducted by Zinman: Symphony No. 5 "Fate" and No. 6 "Pastoral." The jacket says "World premiere recording based on the new Bärenreiter edition." Please forgive minor scratches and stains on the case and booklet. Beethoven: Symphony No. 5 "Fate" / No. 6 "Pastoral" Zinman / Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich [Reissue] Arte Nova Catalog Number: BVCE-38002 Release Date: 1998/10/21 Mini Review The jacket says "World premiere recording based on the new Bärenreiter edition." The clear differences you can hear are the repeat in the third movement of No. 5 and the use of mutes on the strings in the second movement of No. 6. The performance is a light, hard-edged style that cuts off the ends of phrases, like a period instrument performance, but performed by a modern orchestra. Guide Comment This album was a hot topic as the "world premiere recording of the Bärenreiter original edition by a modern orchestra." It was a limited edition when first released, but it was re-released as a regular edition with commentary by Jonathan Del Mar.
