This 23 CD set of James Levine's (born 1943) 1980s/90s Deutsche Grammophon recordings with the Chicago Symphony;MET Orchestra; Vienna Philharmonic; and Berlin Philharmonic gives the listener a real musical feast! There are the 4 Brahms Symphonies with the Vienna Philharmonic from early 1990s live concerts; Beethoven 3, Schubert 8,Stravinsky's "Le sacre du printemps" and Mussorgsky/Ravel Pictures at an exhibition, all with the MET Orchestra;Schumann Symphonies 1, 4 and ManfredOverture; Sibelius 2 and Finlandia;Berlioz Symphonie Fantastique with the Berlin Philharmonic; Schubert Symphony9, Prokofiev 1 and 5 with the Chicago Symphony, among other great recordings.If Levine's Berlioz Fantastique doesn't have the Gallic charm of Munch, Paray, Martinon, or Ansermet, the sound is very good, and Levine's conducting held my interest.I recommend this to fans of James Levine or those wanting the repertoire in this set.Great value for the dollars spent.
