This is an amazing recording of two superb performances from many years ago, beautifully remastered from the original source tapes. Josef Krips emphasizes the beauty and optimism in Beethoven's music, as opposed to raw strength and power. The First Symphony, often underrated in comparison to the others, really springs to life here. And the Eighth is a joyous romp from start to finish.
