In fact, this is the last recording Bohm made, period. You can get an excellent Boehm/Wiener Philharmoniker recording of the 9th as well as the other eight (!!!) from the International Preview Society for about $10 by joining as a new subscriber. My favorite is still von Karajan/Berliner Philharmoniker DG 2563 027. Enjoy! -- ---------------- R J Morgan uw-beaver!tikal!pyrcorp!rmorgan ----------------
