Truly one of the best performances of the Manfred I have heard in some time. The individual instruments are wonderfully caught and Kobayashi does a good job of controlling the raging emotions found in this music. Quite expensive, though. About $45-50 for just this one SACD.
Negatives: Kobayashi is a grunter and the mikes pick up the vocalizations which do detract somewhat from the performance.
After much listening to this cd and much deliberation, I have to lower the sound on this. Kobayashi's incessant grunting is just too much for this recording. The sound really detracts from the overall performance.
