I've been critical of increasing Gramophone blandness in a post which is disappearing before anyone from the magazine comments; but three cheers for the Karajan CD which is a freebie this month. Two classic performances, still well worth listening to. And the additional pleasure of the Brahms in stereo. Maybe the occasional inclusion of an out-of-copyright historic complete performance might satisfy those still complaining about the loss of the monthly CD?

I agree. The wind playing in the finale of No.2 is a delight. I'd never heard this performance before.
