I've got a copy of the Telarc recording of Carmina Burana with Robert Shaw at the Atlanta Symphony.
The recording (as usual) is top notch for Telarc. However, the performance leaves me wanting more.
I feel like the Orchestra is always only playing at about 80%. I think the recording needed a larger choir.
If you have the Telarc recording in your collection and other recordings of Carmina Burana, I'd love to hear your opinion of which performance you prefer. I'm looking for performance feedback, not recording quality feedback.
What I'm looking for is a recording of Carmina where the Orchestra can play wide-open and the Choir can match that. Unfortunately, I don't think that's the Atlanta Symphony recording.
