Fww, that "Classical Notes" site has many reviews of many similar discographies ; worth exploring when time permits. The author is a senior partner, perhaps retired by now, at a very prestigious DC lawfirm.

Excellent and well put-together information on Klemperer's recordings. My own collection contains about 140 CD recordings of Klemperer but, oddly, I don't find myself returning to them very frequently (except for his collaborations with soloists) though I highly praise his "Pastoral" symphony of Beethoven for EMI. He did some fine work for mostly EMI and I rather liked some of his work for Vox. It seems the older he got, so did the tempi in much of his work.
