I wonder if any contemporary good recordings of the celebrated Schoenberg work are available? I am not looking for sextet or the 24 players chamber orchestra but I would like to have a full-blown large orchestra in large hall and with conductor that is not in harry. The Karajan and Berlin is certainly a reference for this work but the DG recording of mid 70s leave some room to wish more in term of “quietly” of sound. Barenboim did it twice: with UK and Chicago orchestra, good but not at the Karajan’s level of “size”, intelligence and continuity. Anything else?
