Description: Surely I can't be the only collector of unusual repertoire who also appreciates one of the world's finest conductors (he's done some fine Schubert 9ths) who, at 83, is finally really getting his due. And this is a live recording from the Dresden Frauenkirche (April 26, 2008). Genia Kühmeyer (soprano), Christa Mayer (alto), Timothy Robinson, Oliver Ringelhahn (tenors), Matthew Rose (bass), Dresden State Opera Choir, Staatskapelle Dresden; Sir Charles Mackerras.
