That is fair and useful. Moest explains his approach in the YT. As you (and I) have shared here, his interpretative approach leans toward being bland and bloodless.
The orchestra is playing out the intended and planned music. Lots of virtuosity and beauty.
My overall assessment remains. I guess it is time to spin my other versions (CvD Clev LP, Szell, HvK, Klemperer Philharmonia, Haitink COE, etc.). Very limited time nowadays.
