Description:

The Ascona Live, which is fingered as one of the best sound quality live recordings of Kuna, is now available on UHQCD. This is a live performance of Kuna's tour of Switzerland with the prestigious Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, the most closely-knit of the concert orchestras. Kuna is said to be a rehearsal averse, but the way he handled the pauses in Beethoven's Eighth and the agogig in the Bra 2 finale were always spot on, showing his surprising meticulousness. The Pauset is broken by footsteps that sound like a theatrical tsukemoto. A virtuoso performance that no one can imitate, with frequent surprise scenes like a big surprise. Heresy and orthodoxy at the same time. This is the best performance of the great conductor. The CD comes with a newly written article by up-and-coming journalist Nestor Castiglione (English with Japanese translation). Muse Trade
