Hello all, As a new member and recent SACD convert I would welcome opinions on the best version of Don Juan by Strauss on Sacd?

Thank you Polly and thanks to all who contributed.
I shall probably go with the Bertrand de Billy.

Szell.
He conducted half of the world premier recording which Strauss let go out under his (Strauss') name -- now that's an endorsement.
The SACD sounds night and day better than previous LP and CD releases, and is better than most of Szell's Epic recordings because it was made in the acoustically superior Masonic Auditorium (as opposed to Severance Hall).

Definitely Szell even though the recording quality is a bit dated.
