KUSC.org has been playing from Fricsay's new large 45 CD set. Last night, caught Tchaikovsky sym 4 about 3 min into last movement. RIAS orchestra with Fricsay. Mostly a brilliant and expressive performance.
Do you have any memories of his recordings?
I remember a wonderful old stereo DGG set with ballet excerpts and a few others when I was young. They're still pristine LP's in my parents' home, waiting for some use.
