In contrast to versions that often suffered from opulence or excessive pathos, he broke with interpretive traditions and delivered a no-frills performance, faithful to the original score, with relentless rhythmic tension and great clarity in the instrumental textures. This streamlined approach revitalized our perception of this repertoire, particularly the early symphonies, which had previously been neglected. This new remastering captures all of its vitality and urgency
