I believe that Barbirolli also did a recording of the Second for the Readers Digest series that was reissued both on vinyl and CD by Chesky that I enjoy quite a bit. Sugarbrie, glad to see you're in good shape. I imagine viewing that storm will not easily be erased from your memory.

Has anyone listened to Sanderling's performances (the whole cycle) with Berlin Symphony Orchestra on Berlin Classics?
For Symphony 5: Kondrashin with Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra on Philips. Symphony 7: Mravinsky with Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra on Erato. these two interpretations provided me different viewpoints to approach Sibelius other than the legendary Sir Barbirolli reading has established.
Newbee, Are Blomstedt's recordings with San Francisco or Dresden? Please confirm.
