It must be better than the Teldec I have...the extremes of volume for that CD had me constantly reaching for the volume control.
and that gave me great heartburn.

Listened to the samples at amazon. Do you know, is this a live recording?

generally speaking, I have found Ondine CDs to be of a very high quality..excepting the earlier symphonies of Rautavaara and the Mellartin cycle, which are now decades old.
