For Symphony 5: Kondrashin with Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra on Philips. Symphony 7: Mravinsky with Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra on Erato. these two interpretations provided me different viewpoints to approach Sibelius other than the legendary Sir Barbirolli reading has established. Newbee, Are Blomstedt's recordings with San Francisco or Dresden? Please confirm. Thanks you all and Happy Listening. Otto
