These historic performances of Mendelssohn’s “Scottish” and “Italian” symphonies were recorded in Berlin in January 1971 with the Berliner Philharmoniker, part of their highly acclaimed cycle of all five Mendelssohn’s symphonies.”Karajan’s Scottish Symphony is so plausible that criticism may seem pedantic. It is a performance with many beautiful things … (on the Italian Symphony bows reassuringly slap on strings in a rattling opening movement. An unusually slow third movement deftly alters the balance of the symphony in a performance which ranks with the best.” –BBC Music Magazine
