This really raised the hairs on my arms, listening and viewing Jaenicke 
(with Santiago Richart, the Schulzes (Adolphe and Richard) and Louis 
Ricci, maybe? - I have a book with pictures of all the section dating 
from 13 years later and it is hard to tell if they are the same faces or 
not) and a long stretch focused on the legendary Harry Glantz leading 
the trumpets towards the end. I never thought I'd see these players in 
their prime and in such pristine image and sound. Consider for a moment 
that, fifteen or sixteen years before the filming, this orchestra was 
playing under the baton of Principal Conductor Gustav Mahler. Now listen 
to it one more time and let it all sink in.
