"Josef Krips ranks alongside the likes of Karajan, Bohm and Fricsay in terms of stature. This set is very much in the german big band orshestral tradition. The LSO play very well but are not quite in the same class as the Vienna Philharmonic or the Berlin Philharmonic. The recording carries quite a bit of hiss but the ear adjusts soon enough. The best performances in this set are the 5th, 7th and 9th symphonies."
