The performance was extremely dramatic and moving in detail, and the symphony has invincible beauty and loftiness of spirit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis eloquence is peculiarly Franck's. Franck has his weaknesses of structure, known to all, capitalized by those who love to dwell upon shortcomings of inspired compositions which live and cast their spell because of their originality and inherent logic and sincerity. So the symphony remains unique and very moving.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause of this transcendent fact it would be disproportionate to dwell upon various details in which Mr. Toscanini departs from tradition if he does not also depart from the precise expression that Franck intended. He takes certain tempi, as that of the middle movement, faster than most, and the character of introspection and mysticism and Franck's depth of chromatic shadow are in a measure departed from.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt can be added that they are replaced by a more objective and straightforward emotion, beautifully, passionately communicated. This interpretation is completely unified and worked out in the most organic fashion, like everything that Toscanini does. He would have his own good and unshakable reasons for his tempi, dynamics and the rest of it. The audience heard Franck’s Symphony, knew his voice, were stirred out of themselves by the faith and the triumphant tenderness of his music. Mr. Toscanini, in his own unique way, brought these essential things home.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOlin Downes\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e, 15 December 1940\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRCA's officially released version of Toscanini conducting the Franck \u003ci\u003eSymphony in D minor \u003c\/i\u003ewas an amalgam of two performances, with the first movement taken from the March 1946 broadcast and the rest from that of 14 December 1940. The reason for this was a nasty but brief mistake in a horn solo line during the first movement of the 1940 performance, something too glaring to go unnoticed. The rest of the performance has always been regarded as superior to the 1946 outing. This release has digitally fixed that mistake, rendering it perfect, thus allowing us to finally hear the full 1940 performance as intended (especially by the horn player!).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrew Rose\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_download_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample3_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample4_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample5_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample6_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_labelfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5fFull Track Listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_typefb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5ftrack_listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_contentfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 24px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTOSCANINI \u003c\/b\u003econducts Franck\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1. \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFRANCK  \u003c\/b\u003ePsyché - 5.
