though there are times where I do feel that his tempos are almost lethargic and too slow. What is so horrible with Celi though is the fact that ALL of the recordings are live and I HATE the interference of background noise. I guess what I really like is tempos that make sense... if the music moves fast than so should the tempo but at appropriate speed. I found the linked video helpful in which conductors readings I felt I wanted to explore. You might too. For me there was less than a half dozen that I was interested in... I have said before recently that the Blomstedt / Dresden set that I bought IMO gets it just right. Wonderfully recorded with great performances. IF it can be better than that I have yet to hear it.....
