Thats right, you did mention that one too. The Daniel Barenboim is good, and she plays wonderfully, but you are also right, by Columbia's typical standards (which can fluctuate), that is a bit of a subpar recording IMO. It is enjoyable though, outside of audiophile standards, and in fact, the Enigma Variations are pretty nice.
@bkeske, yes, of course we discussed that record, and, compared it to the same concerto and soloist but conducted by barbirolli with the LSO the latter being the (much) superior recording but the former being full of sweetness and life.
