This famous 1971 recording of Beethoven's Sixth by the Wiener Philharmoniker under Karl Böhm, now considered a reference, has been called one of the best versions ever recorded and one of Böhm's greatest career performances. On this programme it is paired with Schubert's Symphony No. 5, a 1979 recording which Gramophone praised as a "superb version of this lovely symphony".

A cream-of-the-crop Pastoral that, though not quite achieving the remarkable level of organic development and luscious beauty that Klemperer and Walter achieve, is still a gloriously verdant and painstakingly-built artistic realm. Certainly one of the greatest things that Bohm did along with his Vienna Beethoven 9 and Mozart Requiem. Sometimes he can slip into an indifferent, stodgy, metronomic pulse that detracts from the shape of the music- the Andante of the 6th is an example of this, where the principal theme is clunkily-phrased and even quite amateurish. It’s a burbling brook, let it flow and give it character. Otherwise it’s solid conducting and excellent interpreting- even if you don’t care for Bohm’s style, you’ll want to hear the VPO in this work. The Schubert 5 is a pure delight that the VPO handles with effervescent sensitivity and Bohm sculpts with great imagination and effortlessness. The first movement tempo is absolutely perfect, and once you hear it that way most others sound far too rushed. It’s not Mozart, it’s Schubert, and it’s not so much about the “bubbliness” as it is about the melody lines. Not a big fan of his complete Schubert cycle (a bit bland in the 8th and 9th, try Marriner and Szell) but this 5th is a testament to the partnership of a world-class ensemble, a seasoned conductor, and a youthful, songful, perfect symphony.
