(I checked it against a recording on YouTube.) I can't find ]the Dobrindt recording so not sure about that one.Busterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08918896767504950096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11600065.post-78462514606666019682020-07-17T18:16:21.570-04:002020-07-17T18:16:21.570-04:00I agree it's a good performance.

Anonymous orchestral recordings with woozy sound like this during this period are sometimes from Russian sources, but this doesn't sound like a Russian orchestra. Might be a German radio performance from WWII. A lot of them circulated under pseudonyms on cheap labels.Busterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08918896767504950096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11600065.post-88933950718626223892020-07-17T16:56:14.216-04:002020-07-17T16:56:14.216-04:00Too bad they didn't identify the performers......Too bad they didn't identify the performers... not a bad performance at all. Sounds like it was recorded in a fairly large venue. Thanks for sharing this.
