Karl Bohm / Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra- Mozart: Symphonies 32, 35 Haffner, 36 Linz and 38 Prague
"These from his landmark complete cycle... all well received and I enjoyed hearing them again. Böhm is as excellent a Mozart conductor as Karajan, playing the quick movements in the most lively manner... Haffner is enjoyable, with a faster tempo in the finale, and plenty of momentum to the first movement. K318 has a vital and dramatic performance, The Linz minuet and finale both have sturdy, solid playing; a powerful performance... Böhm is really in his element with the Prague: the first movement is magnificent, superbly played, superbly architected. (Overall)... he shows an exceptional ability to bring subtle emphasis to the felicities of the writing..." - (Gramophone).
