Subject: This is the one to download.

I have several albums of classics conducted by Bruno Walter. He fails to disappoint here, in this version.

This Eroica is played a bit softer, and more melodic than usual, as compared to those conducters that are seeking a more "heroic" sound. But, it works well. The music comes through, and plays for itself.

I recommend this version to be the one added to your collections.
