- the best!I completely agree with the review above. A remarkable recording and one of my favourates. Ozawa has pulled it off with staggering precsision and pace without loosing any of the chaos and rawness, and with the bmg hp remastering (originally recorded 1968) it sounds fresher than most modern recordings.

- The Best RiteI have 8 renditions of Stravisnky's Rite in total and now I can finish my search: I've found one I am completely happy with. It has the seething raw energy that the piece deserves and delivers it in a more controlled manner (in my opinion) than Bernstein's celebrated 1958 recording. Brilliant exhilarating stuff.
