  18.    I feel ill-qualified to participate in this discussion, since I
  19. haven't heard any of the recordings mentioned so far (Solti, Abbado,
  20. Rattle, Bernstein, Horenstein, etc.).  But I will say that I really
  21. like my recording of this piece by Eliahu Inbal and the Frankfurt
  22. Radio Symphony.  I haven't heard any of the competitors, but for me
  23. the Inbal is one of those "I can't imagine a better recording"
  24. recordings.  In fact, if someone were to ask me to show them some
  25. great orchestral brass playing (and great first trumpet playing in
  26. particular), I'd without hesitation grab the Inbal recording of the
  27. 7th from my shelf and put on the last movement.  This from the
  28. Frankfurt *Radio* Symphony?!!!
  29.  
  30. Anyone else know this recording?
