Mozart's performance 50 years ago, when this recording was made, was, in a sense, the end of the romantic performance based on modern instruments and classical forms before entering the performance of early music later. It is said to be close to It may have been this re-recording of Boehm that was described as the most right-wing performance of this piece in that style, but even during the peak of early music performances that followed, this disc never shined. It has remained in people's hearts without losing it. This performance has already reached a height that transcends style differences and trends, and is evaluated as a masterpiece among masterpieces. As evidence of that, this sound source has been reissued many times even in the CD era, and in 2004 it was made into a SA-CD hybrid on the market. Many people may say that the first performance of this song was the Boehm board. Until the 1960s, Böhm maintained a lively command, and even in the 1970s, his keen eyesight and forward-looking music were still alive. However, in this performance, the tempo is slower than usual, and the flow is slow and the amplitude is large. It is somewhat different from the performances that were seen here and there just before his death. Wasn't what Boehm wanted to aim for, in the midst of its elegant sound, a reconstruction of this masterpiece? The slow tempo makes us feel that the approach to this song is more analytical than before, and we can see that he pays great attention to the balance of each individual, including the orchestra. Of course, there are no scenes of relaxation, and the rich sound that makes you feel affection and the high degree of perfection are probably the reasons why this masterpiece is still popular.
