I would recommend Michael Tilson Thomas' recording with the San Francisco Symphony. Clear, crisp, modern sound, but totally maintains the savagery. It's an exhilarating performance.
I guess I don't get it. The Sacrificial Dance is muddy and disorganized (it almost sounds like the percussion are in their own world...) - I'd call it a disaster. Maybe because I've played the piece and have listened to it probably 1000 times, but meh...
They went balls to the wall with stereo separation, which is common with early stereo recordings.
I was in love with Dutoit's performance with Montreal, but the miking was really bad.
I discovered SFO's recording with Michael Tilson Thomas and I haven't turned back. Simply amazing. Great recording and great performance.
